I am on the academic job market! My interests span programming languages (PL), software engineering (SE), and human-computer interaction (HCI). Feel free to download my application materials if you want to know more about my work.
About Me
I am a postdoc at the University of Maryland, working with Leo Lampropoulos as a Victor Basili Postdoctoral Fellow. I also have a part-time position at the University of Pennsylvania, where I recently finished my PhD with Professor Benjamin C. Pierce. My current research focus is on theoretical and human aspects of property-based testing.
I love to collaborate, so feel free to reach out if you have anything you'd like to discuss.
