At Galois
I have worked in Research and Development at Galois since 2007. My research interests include type systems, programming language semantics, automated program analysis and defect detection. At Galois, I have conducted research into tools to help understand the structure of programs and systems for secure web collaboration.
My Background
I have a B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in computer science from the University of California, Santa Cruz. My academic work focused on programming language theory, and particularly on the use of advanced programming language technology to improve software reliability. This involves type theory, formal methods, program analysis, and a bit of subjective exploration into what makes languages pleasant to use.
