I am mostly known for my work on JavaScript and participation in TC39, the JavaScript standards committee.
I work at Google on V8, leading the JS language subteam. Previously, I worked at Bloomberg. Before that, I worked at Mozilla, first in Research, then led JS language work on SpiderMonkey.
I was a programming languages graduate student at UCLA under Jens Palsberg. I did my undergraduate studies in computer science (under Robby Findler) and linguistics at the home for tortured intellectuals, the University of Chicago.
