Background

  • I am currently enrolled as a doctoral student at the University of New Mexico where I am a member of Stephanie Forrest's Adaptive Computation Group. I have previously taken classes in computer science at the University of Washington and George Mason University.
  • For the five years previous to graduate school, I was employed by Mitre, a Federally Funded Research and Development Center. During that time I was promoted to the position of Senior AI Engineer and played a key technical role supporting project Argus(pdf).
  • I completed my undergraduate studies at Kenyon College with a semester at the Budapest semester in Mathematics. I graduated with a BA in mathematics and a minor in philosophy.

Research

I am researching the parallels between computational and natural systems, with the goals of increasing the evolvability and robustness of computational systems. See my dissertation proposal for more.

Software

I've written, maintained or significantly contributed to the following software which ranges from large open-source projects to small utilities.

  • Babel adds literate programming and reproducible research functionality to Org-mode, a major mode of the Emacs text editor.
  • Emacs Starter Kit is a structured extensible default configuration for Emacs implemented using literate Org-mode files.
  • Rinari is a Ruby on Rails minor mode for Emacs.
  • Manipulation of ELF files:
    • elf a CLOS based API for Elf file manipulation in Common Lisp
    • rw-elf a simpler C library for ELF file manipulation
  • Manipulation of C-language (and other) Abstract Syntax Trees:
  • DELTA-DEBUG is a Common Lisp delta debugging implementation.
  • GRAPH is a Common Lisp library for graphs manipulation and analysis.
  • CURRY-COMPOSE-READER-MACROS for concise expression of function partial application and composition in Common Lisp. I've also implemented something similar for Emacs Lisp in curry-compose.el.
  • el-go is an Emacs mode for playing the game of Go.
  • tracer is a simple ptrace based utility for tracing the execution of x86 assembly code.
  • gpolygon is a toy steady state genetic algorithm which matches polygons to images. It runs entirely in the browser making heavy use of the HTML5 canvas element.
