I am a Fourth Year Undergraduate Student studying Computer Engineering at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). I am currently a member of the Human-Centered Computing & Intelligent Sensing Lab and the Roychowdhury Group.

My research focus lies in human-computer interactions (HCI). Broadly speaking, I am interested in the study of how novel technologies affect marginalized groups and the use of interactive technologies, especially ones in mixed reality and gaming, to solve urgent accessibility problems.

Currently, I work at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory as an Applied Decision Systems and Analytics Intern developing interactive data interfaces and big data analyses. Previously I was a Biomechanics Co-Op at Intel 3DAT, Data Analytics and Sports Science Project Lead at UCLA Athletics, and a Data Science Fellow at the National Institutes of Health – Office of AIDS Research.

When I’m not working or writing a website bio, I’m probably modding consoles and controllers, practicing fighting games, training for my next powerlifting meeting, or at the arcade.
