50 The main goal of my research is improving
51 <strong>software&nbsp;reliability</strong>
52 through application of <em>formal methods</em>.
53 </p>
54
55 <p>
56 My current research at <a href="https://watform.uwaterloo.ca">WatForm</a>
57 focuses on formal logic, model checking, and verification.
58 Specifically, I am working on various optimizations aiming to
59 improve the analysis performance of the Alloy Analyzer on
60 models.
61 </p>
62
63 <p>
64 I am also interested in programming languages, type systems, and
65 interactive theorem proving.
