Research interests

The main goal of my research is improving software reliability through application of formal methods.

My current research at WatForm 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.

I am also interested in programming languages, type systems, and interactive theorem proving.

On the side, I dabble in Lean and Rust, and enjoy hacking on Emacs Lisp. I’m also a free software and copyleft advocate, and a volunteer webmaster for the GNU project.
