Bio:

Generally speaking, I am interested in how we can take state-of-the-art advances in programming language theory, namely type-systems & functional programming as combined and presented in the Idris language, and use these advances to fundamentally change how we design systems to make them more trustworthy: Secure and Safe.

Specifically, I am interested in bettering system design and construction through applications of: functional programming; formal verification; mathematically informed programming; dependent types; sub-structural typing (quantitative, resource-dependent, session); and effect handlers. There are more topics that I am interested in, but the above keeps me busy for now!
