Target: Management Positions in Software Development

CTO of a financial software firm using agile methods to build web applications for the world's largest investment banks and hedge funds. Eleven years of inspirational management experience, including

• turnaround consultancy on a troubled 30-million-pound utility billing implementation, and
• building a technology organisation from nothing to 48 people while retaining unusually high levels of quality and resilience.

Research

I have not done as much maths research as I might have hoped to - running a software organisation does tend to consume all one's time! - but I have managed:

• To complete a Reed College thesis (under Joe Buhler, based on an idea from Hendrik Lenstra) on computing power residue symbols.
• To conduct Research Experience for Undergraduates investigation under Paul Cull on Warnsdorff's Rule knight's tours on square chessboards.
• To carry out summer research at TU Darmstadt, later becoming a master's thesis at UC Berkeley, on computing kernels of integer matrices. [Coming soon]
