Hi, I'm Conor! I'm a computer science PhD student in the Sky Lab at UC Berkeley. Much of my current research is part of the Berkeley Hydro project looking at things like the role of CRDTs in the future of cloud programming. I'm interested in a mix of databases, distributed systems, theory, programming languages, and security, but since databases is a microcosm of computer science we can just call it "databases" for short.

You can find my publications on my Google Scholar.

You can reach me or follow along with what I'm up to via my Twitter.
