Musa Al-Masri

“I believe that technology has the power to bridge cultural gaps and bring people together in ways that were once unimaginable.”

Musa grew up in a vibrant Libyan community in the heart of Belfast. As a child, he developed a fascination for technology and programming, spending countless hours tinkering with his family's computer. This passion led him to pursue a degree in computer science, which he completed with distinction. After graduation, Musa landed a programming job and has been thriving in the tech industry ever since. In his free time, he enjoys playing the oud, a traditional Libyan instrument, and watching his favorite football team, Al-Ahly.

What inspired your love for programming?

As a kid, I was always fascinated by how computers worked and how they could be programmed to do almost anything. It was like a whole new world was opening up before my eyes, and I wanted to be a part of it.

How do you think your Libyan heritage influences your work?

Growing up in a Libyan community in Belfast, I learned to appreciate the richness and complexity of different cultures. I think this has helped me approach programming challenges in a more creative and collaborative way, which has been incredibly beneficial in my work.
