46 The main goal of my research is improving
47 <strong>software&nbsp;reliability</strong>
48 through application of <em>formal methods</em>.
49 </p>
50
51 <p>
52 My current research at <a href="https://watform.uwaterloo.ca">WatForm</a>
53 focuses on formal logic, model checking, and verification.
54 Specifically, I am working on various optimizations aiming to
55 improve the analysis performance of the Alloy Analyzer on
56 models.
57 </p>
58
59 <p>
60 I am also interested in programming languages, type systems, and
61 interactive theorem proving.
