I obtained my Ph.D. from the Department of Computer Science speicialized in Human-Computer Intearction at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I was advised by Dr. Karrie Karahalios, as part of the Social Spaces Group. I received my M.S. degree from Georgia Tech where I worked with Dr. Gregory Abowd and Dr. Rosa Arriaga.

My research interests are in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Computer-Supported Collaborative Work (CSCW), with a focus on health, wellbeing, and behavior change. My work understands and designs technology to change behaviors and attitudes of and towards people who are marginalized by society or the healthcare system.
Please see my projects and publications and to learn more about my research.
