About

I am a Research Assistant Professor at the Visualization and Data Analytics Research Center at New York University. I conduct research in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), with a focus on interactive systems in augmented and Virtual Realities (AR/VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). 

I went to Brown University for my Ph.D in Computer Science, advised by Prof. Jeff Huang. I also holds a terminal MFA degree from University of Pennsylvania and eared my BA from University of California, Los Angeles.

Vision

I am interested in exploring AR/VR interactive systems from three critical dimensions: task efficiency, human capability, and human perception. These aspects enhance human-AI collaboration's efficacy, feasibility, and usability in everyday tasks and domain-specific applications.
