Experience

Prior to joining the Media Lab, I studied Industrial Design at Georgia Tech and worked at Google in various capacities from user experience design on the Hangouts video chat application to interaction research for Google[x] on Glass, designing both software and hardware to prototype new digital and physical interactions.

Why

I’m interested in better face-to-face interactions in co-collaborative contexts, remote collaboration, and exploring progressive personalization and adaptation in devices and interfaces, from digital to physical.
