    I am looking for a challenging new venture or research.
My experience, abilities and interests are in the areas of
languages(design and compilers), artificial intelligence,
optimization, algorithms and computational complexity.

    I believe my problem solving and learning skills are
exceptional. I scored perfect 800's in all three sections
of the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and as a student I was
one of the top young mathematicians in North America (as
shown by various math competitions).

    I have been designing and implementing commercial applications
for 11 years. Most recently I led a team in developing a high
level language and environment for a series of mini-computers.
My educational background is in theoretical mathematics but I
have marked and tutored graduate courses in artificial intelligence,
software engineering and computational complexity. I have done
research on language design (especially on APL with Ken Iverson)
and have published papers on work I've done in this area.

    Any contacts or ideas much appreciated. A very brief resume
follows. References, resume and any other information available
upon request.

Experience:

   Computer Research Consultant (Sydney) Aust. Nat. Univ.      1983-84
     - led the team implementation of an advanced APL on HP A900.

   Senior Consultant (Hong Kong) I.P.Sharp Associates          1981-82
     - helped establish new branch office.
    
   Systems Analyst (Toronto) I.P. Sharp Associates             1979-81
     - language research with Ken Iverson (APL inventor, Turing Award).
     - designed and implemented large databases(e.g. billion byte OAG).

   Programmer/Analyst (Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary-summers)    1974-77
     - accounting system and statistical routines.

   Research Assistant (Edmonton) Univ. of Alberta              1982
     - natural language understanding research and seminar.
 
Education:

   B.Sc. Mathematics (Honours) Univ. of Alberta                1978
   Graduate Studies (A average) Univ. of Toronto               1980
     - mathematical foundations, topology, logic and computability.
