About(me)
I care about developing theory, tools, and techniques that enable programmers to make the change they want to see in the world. To this end, I largely work in program synthesis, as a way to help users explore and understand code. In some cases, the aim is to lower the barrier to entry to computer science, and make programming more accessible across more applications domains. This can also take the form of optimizing workflows for advanced developers, helping with DevOps issues, such as configuration, deployment, and infrastructure management. I am particularly interested in the domain of computer music as a frontier to explore new interaction modalities in the programming process.
