I live in Brooklyn, New York City. Most of my work in life has been in the software/technology/mathematics space. I also have a part time pottery practice, Union Pots.

Software

• Texcraft is a project to create an LLVM-style infrastructure for building TeX engines in Rust. Check out the Texcraft playground.

• Transiter is a web service that subscribes to realtime transit data feeds and provides views of the data through a REST API. Demo site.

• Hoard is a distributed fault-tolerant system for collecting data feeds, written in Go. I currently have a three replica deployment collecting NYC transit data.

• The realtimerail.nyc Typescript/React webapp displays train times for the NYC Subway. Despite being branded, it’s fully open source (repository).

Mathematics

I obtained my PhD in mathematics from the Courant Institute, New York University, in 2018. My adviser was Pierre Germain. My thesis is entitled Two topics in the theory of nonlinear Schrödinger equations (PDF download). Doctorate publications:

• Equivariant heat and Schrödinger flows from Euclidean space to complex projective space (Arxiv).
• Resonant Hamiltonian systems associated to the one-dimensional non-linear Schrödinger equation with harmonic trapping (Arxiv).

I did my undergraduate degree at University College Cork in the Irish city where I grew up.
