About

I solve problems using mostly software and duct tape. At varying points, I've been mainly writing Ocaml, Javascript, Python, F#, C#, PHP, and C. I'm a generalist although some areas of interest include web security, cryptography, programming language design, healthcare data standards, procedural generation, and 3D engines.
