What emerging technology or industry are you most interested in?
Without a doubt, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning in particular is one of the areas that have captivated my interest.

Purpose. Everything you have done, are doing, and will do, will always have a purpose in the grand scheme of things. Finding the purpose may sometimes be difficult, but the important part is understanding that there is a purpose behind all the work you do.
