I am a PhD student the Computer Science and Engineering program at the University of North Texas. Prior to doctoral studies, I worked as a designer for about 12 years and completed a Master of Science in Applied Cognition and Neuroscience with a specialization in human-computer interaction (HCI) at the University Texas at Dallas.

I plan to focus my research on cognitive state monitoring and prediction in the context of human-computer interaction. The application of these emerging systems for human spaceflight is especially fascinating to me, and I hope to continue exploring how technological design for spaceflight can benefit human well-being more broadly.

Research interests: human-computer interaction, human cognition, human factors in space exploration, user interface design, user experience design, accessibility, data analytics, signal processing, sensors, microcontrollers, music technology, brain-computer interfaces, robotics, satellites
