soulware
i'm sam.
i studied computer science & mathematics at Northeastern University.
my main interests in this area are graphics, game development, and compilers (especially: type theory, memory safety). i also like playing with operating systems, ai, and networks. broadly, i'm interested in making all software go faster.
outside of this, i like game design, writing, and music, especially local boston scenes.
feel free to message me about anything.
