Hello! I am a person, programmer, and computer science PhD candidate at Harvard University, advised by Prof. Eddie Kohler. Broadly speaking, I focus my research on improving the maintainability, security, and performance of the World Wide Web.

I like writing code. I maintain a small hobby scripting language called hestia.
Outside of work, I enjoy Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, playing piano, reading long novels, and simple personal websites that load almost instantly.
