        p I'm interested in research into human-computer communication and into the ways humans model, manipulate, and think about complex systems. I want to make our software better at communicating with us, particularly in order to extend programming capabilities to a larger audience. Today's software is fragile, messy, bloated, and incomprehensible. We need new ways to produce it and new ways to understand it.
      p You can learn about my projects here.
