Hi,

My name is Jean-Paul but all my friends, family and work colleagues call me as JP for short and I have come rather accustomed to the short form. Born raised and educated in Melbourne Australia from Mauritian and Irish parenting, I have grown up with a love for literature, mathematics, computing. music and fine arts. If you have not visited Victoria Australia then I strongly recommend it (when we can freely travel again) as a state of beautiful cities, wineries and the arts.

A late bloomer in life, I began my career in computers in multimedia, studying computing in my early twenties then continuing my studies in computer science in my late twenties/thirties. Now almost in my 40s, I am a postgraduate student of Applied AI studying the disciplines of Supervised Learning, Unsupervised Learning and Reinforcement Learning.

I currently work for Xero the cloud based accounting software company as a Principal Engineer and my main programming languages are Go, C-Sharp, Java and Python. My interests in C++ are currently outside my day job reading, coding and applying to problems in in distributed systems and ML.

If you share interests in applied AI and distributed systems please reach out.
