biography

  • Grounded in user-centered design and context-aware computing, my research focuses on Intelligent Communication Experiences, a new class of interactive experiences where AI seamlessly participates in human communication as either a communication partner or a communication mediator to enhance how people learn, collaborate, work, and connect. My research is driven by two research questions:

    (a) AI as Communication Partner(s): How can AI be designed as conversant(s) to enhance human capabilities in communication, learning, and decision-making?

    (b) AI as Communication Mediator(s): How can AI be designed and integrated as communication mediator(s) to enhance interpersonal communication between people?

    I design and develop novel interactive experiences using a wide range of augmentation technologies, such as eXtended Reality (XR) headsets, conversational voice assistants, and mobile devices.

    I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of California San Diego. My work has been published in leading HCI venues, including CHI, UIST, DIS, ASSETS, IMWUT, TOCHI etc. 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.
