Hi! I’m Sankha. I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Maryland, advised by Prof. Jeff Foster and Prof. David Van Horn. I work with the folks at the PLUM group.
I am interested in programming languages and formal methods with a focus on foundational, yet practical, techniques that facilitate understanding programs, improve software reliability, and in general, help in building functionally correct software. Currently, I work on building expressive type systems and verification tools for Ruby programs and scaling them to work on large Ruby on Rails web applications.
In the past, I have worked at BrowserStack where I helped build infrastructure to allow developers to test apps and websites at large scale. I also used to contribute to SpiderMonkey - Mozilla Firefox’s JavaScript engine.
