          The main goal of my research is improving
          <strong>software&nbsp;reliability</strong>
          through application of <em>formal methods</em>.
        </p>

        <p>
          My current research at <a href="https://watform.uwaterloo.ca">WatForm</a>
          focuses on formal logic, model checking, and verification.
          Specifically, I am working on various optimizations aiming to
          improve the analysis performance of the Alloy Analyzer on
          models.
        </p>

        <p>
          I am also interested in programming languages, type systems, and
          interactive theorem proving.
        </p>

          On the side, I dabble in <a href="https://leanprover.github.io">Lean</a>
