Homepage of Chris Sexton

This is something of a personal index of things I'm involved in and continually interested in. If any of it strikes your fancy, then I win! But if I didn't fill in content here or there, don't be surprised. There are in fact other things I have to do from day to day.

I am currently a master's student at University of New Hampshire, but I spend a goodly amount of time back home in Kentucky. I've been involved in a number of jobs in the Louisville area on various computing tasks and hope that I can find such a job when this whole grad school adventure is over. My goals are firstly to find an interesting job to keep myself going at the same incredible pace that I've been able to set here at UNH.

In an effort to paint a better picture of myself, maybe it's better to see a list of things I like on my Recommended Things page.

Projects

• 7DRL - My attempt at a quickly written roguelike set in space
• Research - My work with heuristic search over the sliding tiles puzzle
• Brewing - My public brewing recipies

Activities

Here are some things I like to do:

• Code - As a computer scientist, I do like to write code. Most of it tends to be for my school work, but sometimes I get time to do things on my own. There are some public works available in my projects section, but I'm fairly hesitant to publish code so there's a lot less there than what I usually do.
• Homebrewing - I've been brewing beer for quite a while now. I have lots of interesting recipes available in my Brewing section.
• Cooking - This is mostly a thing to do when people are around to serve, but I find great art and satisfaction in cooking great meals. Check out Chef John's Food Wishes for some really great cooking ideas! Maybe someday I'll put a docs page up with my favorite recipes and the things I want to make in the future.
• Watch football (not the American kind) - I actually don't know a thing about any other sport out there, but I do enjoy watching football. I can't say that I'm completely sold on a particular team in America, but I try to follow the Columbus Crew since it's the closest team to Louisville. Check out John Green's alternate reality football on YouTube where he takes the Swindon Town Swoodilypoopers to the top of the English Premier League.
