I run the company, look for new projects and contracts, develop new business opportunities, and participate in the research being done by the company.

More than 30 years ago, I came up with the idea of a board game. The rules were very simple, but the board soon becomes too complex for humans to play against each other. Instead, the players write Python code that implements their game strategy, and the code battle it out in matches. The technology required to make this game possible hasn't been available and only with the dawn of cloud platforms such as AWS, could this concept be realised. Fortuitously, along came James, an incredibly talented high school student, who had the skills to develop the platform and establish Kekule Games.I have been mentoring James, and together we strive to make programming into a sport with continual competitions to find the champion of game strategy and Python programming.
