Research in Human-Computer Interaction
My research interests include online communities, interaction design, and computer-supported cooperative work. Previously, I conducted human-computer interaction (HCI) research with the Temple University HCI Lab under the guidance of Dr. Stephen MacNeil, exploring conversational user interfaces and educational tools for learning. In 2024, I was selected as a National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Scholar. While I am currently working in industry and on hiatus from research, I hope to continue contributing to these areas in the future.
