About Me

I have recently completed a PhD at the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation at the University of Amsterdam working with Ulle Endriss on preference representation as part of the GLoRiClass Project. For more information, see my CV.

Organizational

M-PREF 2010 PC member
Cabal Seminar Reprints
I am presently organizing the retyping of articles from the Cabal Seminar on descriptive set theory, to appear in the Lecture Notes in Logic series.
Texts in Logic and Games
I am the (cue blaring of trumpets) Technical Assistant for the new book series Texts in Logic and Games, which—unsurprisingly—is about logic and games. I am to blame for the series' LaTeX style file, among other things.
