I'm an art historian-and-erstwhile-WordPress-developer-turned-engineer who loves lower-level, infrastructure-y projects, crunching data, and anything involving bit manipulation. If there's one thing my former life as an academic shares with my current one, it's a love of building complicated and carefully structured things from first principles: I am happiest when I'm descending through layers of abstraction and ecstatic when I have reached bedrock and my spade is turned.

I'm currently finishing up my batch at the Recurse Center, a self-directed coding retreat, where I've been focusing on infrastructure and networking projects in Python and C and generally pairing and collaborating as much as possible.

• 🔭 Currently working on: zcc, a C compiler front-end
• 🌱 Currently learning: C, networking fundamentals, Go
• 🧐 Languages I'm excited to learn next: Rust, Elixir, Clojure
• 🛠️ Projects I'm excited to tackle next: building a text editor in C, building an interpreter, Computer Systems: A Programmer's Perspective, Gossip Glomers, Cryptopals, Protohackers
