A lover of technology with a fascination for all things analytics with particular interest in the role of analytics in transforming how we live & work!
I've has spent the last decade building content analytics solutions at IBM. I led IBM LanguageWare from small research project in 2001 into world-class NLP tooling that is now integrated across a breadth of IBM technologies from IBM Content Analytics to Cognos Consumer Insight and IBM Watson. I then spent some time working on semantic web technologies, followed by some work with the IBM consulting organization on a series of customer facing projects across multiple geographies and industries. I was able to support our clients in the business process and architectural transformations required to enable them fully exploit the valuable insights hidden inside their unstructured information. Finally a stint in Marketing, as Strategist & Evangelist for IBM Content Analytics, before moving into the IBM Collaboration Solutions division to work on Social Analytics Strategy for IBM Social Business.
