About Me

I am a Ph.D. student in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon. I did my undergraduate work at CMU as well, studying Computer Science, Discrete Math and Logic, and Russian Studies. I disappeared for a year before returning to start my graduate studies.

I donate a little bit of time each Monday to providing other graduate students with tea. If you would be interested in joining the weekly tea hour for free tea, you can join the mailing list.

Research

Current

I am currently advised by Frank Pfenning and Seth Goldstein and am involved in the claytronics project.
I would like to figure out how to program a claytronics ensemble in a reasonable way.

Past

As an undergraduate, I was advised by Karl Crary and Bob Harper on my senior thesis working towards a mechanized proof of type-safety for SML.
Among other things, this resulted in a submission to the poplmark challenge.

Papers

My papers are available here.
