About Me
I am an interdisciplinary scientist who studies user experience and human-technology interaction. My current efforts focus on humans and autonomous systems (what one might call AI). My goal is to enable the most effective interaction experiences!
Understanding how users interact with systems, how they would like to interact, how technology affects them, and how they can influence adaptive technology is key to maximizing performance and aligning technology with human goals. My work has spanned a wide range of topics, from psychophysics and cognitive science to speech communication and natural language processing. I've worked with virtual reality, training research, simulators, surveys, and more!
Constantly learning, I love exploring new topics and gaining new skills. I'm equally at home clattering away on my keyboard or running around in the field chasing everything from robots to prairie dogs (wait, what?) ... for science!
