I am a graduate-level UX Researcher and Designer with a prior background in Architecture. I am interested in leveraging IoT and Mixed Reality Technologies to augment real-world experiences and encourage social interactions. I am also passionate about building technologies that provide access to education and health in developing countries.

My core strengths lie in research-driven ideation which is seeded in being intrinsically driven by problems and ideas. My varied background has given me the ability to think about problems on a systemic level. I believe I thrive in interdisciplinary work environments that have a collective growth mindset.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE

  • 9 months of experience as a Research Intern at the National University of Singapore HCI lab has given me the foundation to conduct Academic HCI Research. I have published Research Papers to 3 Conferences, including CHI ‘20, IEEE ‘22 and PETRA ’22, during my time at the National University of Singapore HCI Lab and University of Washington.

  • Our Innovative Project Ideas at the University of Washington were selected for Innovation and Business Competitions, like the Environmental Innovation Challenge and the Dempsey Startup Competition, as well as to the I-Corps Training Program at UW.

  • The Coursework and Projects at the University of Washington MSTI program have equipped me with Design skills like Design Thinking, User Research and Evaluation, Visual and Interaction Design, and Fabrication and Prototyping.
