I do independent research in mathematics and computer science at Halfaya Research. I am particularly interested in analysis and synthesis of music.
I perform on 中阮 (zhongruan) with the Seattle Chinese Orchestra. I also compose music and play the piano.
I maintain pages on my favorite authors Alain Robbe-Grillet and Marie Redonnet, as well as a selection of my own much more modest attempts at fiction.
I was co-chair (with Youyou Cong) of FARM 2022, the ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Functional Art, Music, Modelling and Design. In 2023 I was again co-chair of FARM, this time with Mae Milano. I am now on the FARM Steering Committee.
I was an alpine climb and scramble leader for the Mountaineers, although I'm taking a break from mountaineering.
I currently focus on running and competitive racing as a member of Club Northwest, where I was the Vice President of Teams from 2020-23.
