Andres started using Haskell in 1997. Since then, he has used Haskell for most of his programming projects. He has participated in the ICFP programming contest multiple times, and won it in a team together with Duncan Coutts, Ian Lynagh and Ganesh Sittampalam in 2004, with an all-Haskell entry.
Andres is a well-known member of the Haskell community. He maintains several tools and libraries on Hackage. He has also packaged Haskell compilers and libraries for the Gentoo and NixOS Linux distributions.
Andres obtained a PhD in Computer Science from Utrecht University in 2004. Since 2004, he has worked as a lecturer and researcher at the Institute of Cybernetics in Tallinn, and at the universities of Freiburg, Bonn, and Utrecht. Andres’ research is focused on improving abstraction and reuse in functional programs, by using or enhancing the underlying type system. His interests also include embedded domain specific languages, version control and typesetting.
Andres was the program chair of the 2006 ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Haskell and of the 2012 ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Generic Programming. He has served as a program committee member for several other academic conferences and has published regularly at conferences and journals. He also has extensive experience in teaching Haskell to undergraduate and graduate students, as well as people with an industrial background.
