<p>Hi, I'm Amin.  I am currently a graduate student at the
<a href="//watform.uwaterloo.ca">Waterloo Formal Methods</a>
group at the University of Waterloo, supervised by
<a href="//cs.uwaterloo.ca/~nday/">Nancy&nbsp;Day</a>.
The main goal of my research is
improving <strong>software and systems reliability</strong>
through application of
<a href="//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_methods">formal methods</a>.</p>

<p>My research at WatForm focuses on formal logic, model checking, and
verification.  I am also interested in programming languages, proof
assistants, and their type systems.</p>

<p>On the side, I enjoy
<a href="//stallman.org/articles/on-hacking.html">hacking</a> on
<a href="//www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/elisp.html">elisp</a>
and <a href="//www.gnu.org/software/guile/">guile</a>.
I am a GNU <a href="//www.gnu.org/people/#bandali">maintainer</a> and
<a href="//www.gnu.org/people/webmeisters.html#bandali">webmaster</a>,
a <a href="//www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html">free software</a>
activist, and an <a href="//www.fsf.org/associate/">associate member</a>
of the <a href="///www.fsf.org">Free Software Foundation</a>.
I'm the co-host of the <a href="//emacsel.com">Emacs.el</a>
podcast with <a href="//www.pygopar.com">Daniel Gopar</a>, and
the chief organizer of the
<a href="//emacsconf.org">EmacsConf</a> conference.
I'm also a member of the Systems Committee of the
<a href="//csclub.uwaterloo.ca">Computer Science Club</a> of
the University of Waterloo.</p>
