I have recently completed an MSc in Artificial Intelligence at Edinburgh University. Prior to that I recieved my BA in Cognitive Science at Wesleyan University. I'm also in the midst of developing an AI website.

I hardly ever edit Wikipedia much anymore, so don't hope to find me here. I occasionally find an interested article or policy discussion that grabs my attention for a little while, though, so I'm still around.

I became an Administrator and a Mediator in September, 2005. I'm not the most prolific author of new material, but while here I have created:

Exaptation, Daniel Barringer (geologist), Barringer, Hyperpolyglot, Dangerous Minds, Sideman, Ad infinitum, Squirrel Nut Zippers, The Pompatus of Love, Love handles, Middle age, Arcadia University, Baggio, Balian and Capoeira music
... along with numerous other minor edits, clean ups, vandal-hunting, and discussions in many other articles. I also contribute to Wikibooks (see my WB user page here).

I'm also engaged in drawing technical diagrams and uploading photos for pages across the Wiki projects. You can see my gallery at the commons.

I'm a member of the Harmonious Editing Club, so call me out if you think I'm not using Talk pages effectively.
I think this is the one of the most important general editing policies, and it also has the best name: Wikipedia:Stay cool
And finally, remember: Nil illegitimi carborundum
