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

  59         <p>
  60           My current research at <a href="https://watform.uwaterloo.ca">WatForm</a>
  61           focuses on formal logic, model checking, and verification.
  62           Specifically, I am working on various optimizations aiming to
  63           improve the analysis performance of the Alloy Analyzer on
  64           models.
  65         </p>
  66
  67         <p>
  68           I am also interested in programming languages, type systems, and
  69           interactive theorem proving.
