I am always seeking a challenge with impact, so I have worn a couple different hats:

Programming Languages Researcher

I have done research in programming languages, especially applied type systems, along with some experiments in concurrency and mechanized metatheory. Please see my CV (pdf) for more info. You can also find a list of publications with download links here.

Cloud & Mobile
"Data" Engineer

I have built or contributed to the back-end of many companies, with a bit of a specialization in analytics/data concerns and a good amount of leadership experience. See my resume for more info. You can also see my open source contributions on github.

Here is a brief outline of some of my past endeavors. As mentioned above, I also maintain a resume (longer) and a CV(more formal).

Dimagi

Throughout 2013 I worked with Dimagi to improve data management capabilities in their flagship product CommCare, a suite of cloud and mobile technology supporting diverse efforts to deliver basic food, health, and education to underserved communities worldwide.

Hubway
Data Viz

To contribute to my new locale of Boston and explore some interesting data, I joined a volunteer team building this interactive visualization of Hubway bike share data, which won Best Analysis.

Inkling

In 2010 I joined Inkling to build their platform for building interactive learning content. I contributed to the development of nearly every piece of their backend. I quickly specialized and through 2012 directed their analytics team including business analysts, designers, front-end and back-end engineers.

Sugarcube

In 2009 I joined an elite team of four developing iPhone apps for Fortune 500 brands including Gap, Timberline, Target and Cooks Illustrated, regularly featured in Apple commercials and stores.

Graduate Studies

From 2004 to 2009 I was at the University of California, Santa Cruz, doing research in programming languages, including that which led to my dissertation. All of my work from this period is available for download on my Publications & Projects page and summarized in my CV.

Cityspan

From 2000 to 2004 I led the development team building Cityspan's principle product, Youthservices.net, an information management system now used by over 100 large not-for-profit clients such as the Chicago Public Schools.
