I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student at Stanford University, part of SHAPE Lab, advised by Prof. Sean Follmer. I also work closely with Prof. Jeremy Bailenson in Virtual Human Interaction Lab. My research explores how computing systems can reconnect users to everyday interactions by creating systems that augment our senses, allowing us to see, touch, and engage with the world in new ways.

I obtained my MS at the University of Chicago, advised by Prof. Pedro Lopes, and BA at UNC-Chapel Hill with a double major in Journalism and Computer Science. Before jumping into academic research, I worked in product management and advertising.
