# About

Hello again. I'm JJ, but you may know me by apropos or omentic (among other names).

I'm passionate about [linguistics], [computer security], [decentralized and resilient systems], and [general mathematics](). I'm also broadly interested in [programming language theory], and have grown particularly interested in [type theory]: finding it to be a nice intersection between a good number of my interests. In my spare time, I enjoy roller skating, playing ultimate frisbee, folding origami, reading books, capturing flags, and (occasionally) rock climbing.

I'm also a hobbyist programmer, skilled at [Nim], [Rust], [Racket], and [Java], sufficiently proficient in [Python] and [Lean], and currently learning [HTMX] and [TypeScript]. Most of my projects are created in one or more of those languages. If you're interested, several are available [here on my website], with the rest having taken up residence in [the depths of my GitHub profile].

If you're looking to contact me, feel free to reach out over email / XMPP to jj [at] toki.la.
