Bio

I am currently a postdoctoral research associate at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, working under Missy Cummings and Jon How.

I received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from UCLA in 2010 under the direction of Majid Sarrafzadeh. I have a wide range of experience in software engineering and UI design: work on listening and communication training for the hearing impaired at Neurotone Inc., on professional audio mixing interfaces at Euphonix (now a division of Avid), and on digital media distribution at Sony Music Entertainment and Liquid Digital Media. Prior to that I earned an M.S. in Physics from Stanford University and a B.S. in Mathematical Physics from Brown University. My broad interests include human-computer interaction for supervisory control systems and human factors of software engineering. Please see the links above for my publications, CV, and my research and teaching statements.
