Now update
January 2026
Continuing the master's, taking in the new year, and more. Here is what's new and ongoing.
Welcome to the first real bulletin, here is what’s new and ongoing.
Personal
-
I spent winter break working on a new version of this blog, codename Jakarta. Not after the city, but most certainly after the font you see on this page. Read more…
-
But, don’t worry, I also spent well needed time resting and with family (while coughing in between).
-
There is much improvement to be done in the personal and mental health department, as always, so we just have to keep working on that.
-
Trying to get back into some old hobbies and maybe new hobbies for the new year. Maybe we’ll get back into Apple Fitness+, write a book review for the blog— we’ll see.
Academics
-
Continuing research under André van der Hoek, with a new focus in AI & Creativity.
-
I’ll be a teaching assistant for IN4MATX 43, Introduction to Software Engineering under Hadar Ziv. I’ll be managing a few discussion sections, with about fifty students in them.
-
Currently working on an experience report about an adapted version of SCRUM used during my senior capstone. We’re hoping to make it to the upcoming FSE deadline.
-
Taking more classes to refine my research skills, or as my junior year English teacher would say, the tools in my toolbox.
