HCI Research

I am involved in human-computer interaction (HCI) research, specifically interaction design, conversational user interfaces, online communities, and educational tools to support learning. My past work is in collaboration with the Temple University HCI Lab, under guidance of Dr. Stephen MacNeil. In 2024, I was selected to be a Scholar for the Research Experience for Undergraduate students (REU) through the National Science Foundation.
