Irvine, CA
Hello and welcome! I am currently a rising senior Informatics student at the University of California-Irvine (UCI), specializing in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and minoring in Information and Computer Sciences. Alongside my studies, I am actively involved in undergraduate research at the Social & Technological Action Research (STAR) Lab, advised by Dr. Jesus Armando Beltran Verdugo and Dr. Gillian Hayes. Recently, I completed a stint as an Undergraduate Research Intern at the University of California-Berkeley (UCB) at the EPIC Data Lab advised by Dr. Yiming Lin and Dr. Aditya Parameswaran.
Broadly, my research interest lies in empowering individuals with disabilities by developing accessible and interactive technologies that help them overcome physical and cognitive barriers in their daily lives. I approach this goal through various aspects of Computer Science, particularly focusing on HCI, user interfaces and information retrieval.
