I design equitable and educational human-data interactions.

I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Denver Department of Computer Science and Affiliate Faculty with the Scrivner Institute of Public Policy. My research interest is in designing critical and equitable human-data interactions to foster learning opportunities and inform policy. I engage with computing education, human-computer interaction, and AI ethics research communities.

I was previously a Postdoctoral Fellow with Stanford University’s Human-Computer Interaction Group and Graduate School of Education and an Embedded Ethics Fellow with Stanford’s Institute for Human-Centered AI and McCoy Center for Ethics in Society. I completed my PhD at the University of Washington Information School with Prof. Amy Ko, where I was a National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellow and also a research intern at non-profit Code.org. Prior to my PhD, I was an MIT EECS-Google Research and Innovation Scholar as an undergraduate and Master’s student at MIT researching with Prof. Hal Abelson and MIT App Inventor.
