About Me

I am a PhD student in Computer Science at Brown University, advised by Shriram Krishnamurthi. I'm especially focused on helping people write programs that behave as they intend. This means that my research touches on programming languages, formal methods, human factors, and education.

Previously, I was a software engineer at Microsoft, where I worked on the XAML language (2015/2016-2018), and then Azure's AI services (2018-2021). My research interests are informed by my time as an engineer. I have written code that doesn't do what I want it to, and I want to spare everyone else the indignity.
