What I'm Doing

Working on a site called Jotleaf.com. A Jotleaf page is an interactive canvas for the web. You can click anywhere on it to add writing, pictures, or media embeds.

Some Things I've Done

Published two papers in the field of formal language theory. The problem they examine is a natural generalization of DFA minimization. For the first paper, my friend Ian and I co-published with a professor across the world who'd coincidentally discovered the same results at the same time. The second paper appeared in a conference, and actually reached the public first. See citations.

As the first employee at Disqus, designed, built, and launched the first versions of the API, deployment, internationalization, and third-party authentication components.

Made a website called Your World of Text. It's a creative/artistic site that has been included in gallery showings, taught in college classes, misattributed to Miranda July, nominated for a Prix Ars Electronica, and changed at least one person's life.
