biography

  • I am an Assistant Professor at the Knight Foundation School of Computing and Information Sciences, part of the College of Engineering and Computing at Florida International University in Miami.

    Rooted in a user-centered design approach, my research seeks to understand how XR and AI can seamlessly extend our thoughts, behaviors, and activities by augmenting today's information interaction experiences. I focus on both general-purpose tasks and those oriented toward the needs of specific or marginalized users. Ultimately, I envision future information interaction experiences as intuitive, seamless and context-aware.

    I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of California San Diego. I was a former researcher at Microsoft Research, Adobe Research and Carnegie Mellon University. My research has been recognized with a Distinguished Paper Award from ACM IMWUT, an Honorable Mention Award from ACM CHI, a Best Poster Runner-Up Award from ACM SenSys, the BP Scholarship, and has been selected as a finalist for the Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship and the Adobe Research Fellowship. I received my M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University, and a B.Eng. (First Class, Hons.) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the University of Nottingham.
