Hello, I'm Peter

I'm a poet-turned-coder building tools for manipulating language.

In Fall 2024 I attended Recurse Center. While I was there I worked on a variety of C++ projects for manipulating the sound of language:

  • Phonetic, for working with the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary
  • Rhyme & Meter, for checking rhyme-distance and meter validation in lines of poetry
  • Vowel Deformer, for manipulating vowel-space--like a color filter, but for words

I used WebAssembly to integrate these C++ projects into fully-functional web applications:

I like building for the web. I think WASM is exciting. I like designing interfaces. I think Figma is a beautiful tool. I feel as at home in C++ as I do in CSS.
