About Me

Hi there! I'm a first-year master's student at the University of Minnesota. I also currently work as a Software Developer at AWS (previously at SIFT). My computing-related interests lie in programming language design and formal verification, systems security, cryptography, and distributed systems.

Research

Currently, I'm learning about cubical type theory. I'll probably write some blog posts as I learn more. My advisor is Favonia.

University Involvement

  • GopherHack. I'm an officer at the GopherHack organization, hoping to grow a CTF community at the University.
  • PL Seminar. A group focused on reading and discussing programming-language-related papers

Open-source Projects

Some of the projects I've been working on in my free time include:

  • Leanshot. A Linux screen capture tool.
  • Garbage. A CLI interface to the trash can API.

More can be found on this page or my public Gitea.

I've also started making an increased effort at using and supporting FOSS, and other software that're not predatory towards users. As a part of this effort, I'm also self-hosting and rewriting some of the services and software that I use regularly. Find out what I'm using here.

Hobbies

I'm also an avid rhythm game player and beatmap creator, mostly involved with the free-to-play game osu!. Check out some of my beatmaps on my osu! userpage.

I also enjoy playing badminton 🏸 at the rec.
