About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Moving to Cambridge and making new friends there

ABOUT ME

It all started in Malta... where I was born, went to school, and University. After graduating as an Architect and Civil Engineer, I worked and traveled for 6 years, before deciding to go back to Uni to study for an MSc in Structural Engineering in Sheffield.

Once that was done, I ended up staying in Sheffield to do a PhD. That included spending 2 years in Singapore, doing research.

I love travelling... I stopped counting a while ago but I think I must have visited around 60 countries by now, mostly in Asia and Europe.

I'm a newbie really... but from my first CS experience in Nottingham as a guest I made some very good friends so I'm keen on trying it again!

Interests
