currently
I am the SVP of Engineering at Kong - the cloud-connectivity company. We write the world's most used api-gateway & are solving the layer-4 to layer-7 cloud-connectivity problem. I am also currently pursuing a B.Sc(Hons) in Mathematics from OU, UK. I have always had a layman's interest in History, chiefly the Near-East & Egypt of the Bronze & Iron Ages, and I actively try to maintain that interest.
