I have moved to The Pennsylvania State University and no longer maintain or update this page. It will remain available until the powers that be decide to take it down. For my updated page please visit http://www.personal.psu.edu/kiw5209/
I am a student pursuing a Masters degree in Computer Science from the University of Cape Town within the fields of Digital Libraries, Information Retrieval and Cultural Heritage Preservation. I consider myself an experimental computer scientist who enjoys working in an environment which allows for free thinking and experimentation. I enjoy working in groups and sharing ideas and knowledge and strongly believe in the use of computing standards and in the benefits of open source software. My work interest is in an experimental environment which is research based, cutting edge and allows me to take hold of the direction of the work that I do.
Outside of work I'm a keen believer in open source and free software, a music lover, a football fan and a keen Magic: The Gathering player.
