I was in KMi from November 2002 to November 2010, first as a PhD student then as a researcher in the Semantic Web Services group headed by John Domingue. Projects I have been affiliated with are: Scholarly Ontologies (ScholOnto), LUISA, Living Human Digital Library (LHDL), NoTube, Service Web 3.0, and mEducator.

Quick personal background: Originally I am from the lovely island of Barbados and I came to the (also lovely) island of Great Britain in 2001 where I spent a year in the...
