I am a PhD student at Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS) and Saarland University under the supervision of Derek Dreyer, head of the Foundations of Programming group.
+I am assistant professor at ETH Zürich as part of the Institute for Programming Languages and Systems. +Previously, I completed my PhD at MPI-SWS and Saarland University in Saarbrücken, Germany; my advisor was Derek Dreyer. +I also did a post-doc in the PDOS group at MIT CSAIL. +
-Previously, I did my Bachelor's thesis in computer science at the Compiler Design chair of the university (also see below).
+ -I am currently working on logics to support modular reasoning about higher-order concurrent imperative programs. The focus is on providing simple building blocks that are powerful enough to recover previous reasoning techniques.
+My two main lines of work are about Rust and Iris.
+On the Rust side, I am working (also in collaboration with the Rust language team) towards a solid formal foundation for the language, including in particular the unsafe parts.
+One key result here is our type safety proof, which also describes a methodology for establishing type safety of well-encapsulated unsafe code.
+My goal is to make unsafe Rust just as safe as safe Rust by means of formal verification.
+On the Iris side, besides continuing development of its logical foundations, I am interested in applying Iris to new problem domains; recently I started working on modular verification of fault-tolerant distributed system components.

In my free time, I like to run internet services myself and work on free software. This goes hand-in-hand with my pursuit of defending our privacy rights and our freedom in the digital world. See my personal website for more information.
