Research

I was a graduate student at Georgia Tech, where I worked in the Technology and International Development Lab and was advised by Michael Best. My research interests lie at the intersection of human-computer interaction (HCI) and technology for developing regions (ICTD).

As an undergraduate student at the University of Washington, I was an active member of the Change group and worked on MultiLearn under the direction of Richard Anderson and Joyojeet Pal.

Some examples of my work are below. Feel free to email me if you’d like to get in touch.
