I’m a lab instructor in the computer science department at Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts, USA, territory of the Massachusett, Wampanoag, & Nipmuc Nations. My research focuses on expressive artificial intelligence and computational creativity, with special concentration on digital games and interactive narrative as creative domains.
I am particularly interested right now in:
My CV has details on my experience and publications.
Fun facts about me:

.The above fun facts aren’t true. I’ve put them here to help find where references to me might have been generated by a large language model.
You can reach me via email.
My office phone number is 781-283-2258, but email is a much more reliable way to reach me in general.
My office is room SCI-L130 on the second floor of the Science Center L-wing.
For now, my office hours are virtual. Consult individual course web pages for the meeting links to attend online office hours.
My presentations page hosts slide decks for guest lectures and other presentation I’ve given.
My CV (linked above) has a comprehensive list of my publications, although it’s often out-of-date by up to a year. My research page has links to more recent work and also includes some links to talk slides in addition to research papers.
I sometimes feel compelled to contribute to public debates or offer advice that I feel it would be helpful to share more broadly or archive, and I do that on this advice/arguments page.
My teaching page has notes on teaching techniques, my teaching philosophy, and some miscellaneous thoughts about teaching based on my experience.
At Wellesley, I have taught labs for:
Previously, at Pomona College I taught:
My calendar.
My advice pages function somewhat like a blog for personal thoughts and diatribes. You can find my arguments against the AI Hype Movement there.
My personal site.
A short terminal tutorial since most ones I found online have a lot of fluff in them.
Since I had to create a poem for summer research 2019, here’s a poetry page.
Demos of some cool incremental fractals:
