I’m a UX researcher and behavioral science thinker at the University of Michigan, where I study Human-Computer Interaction. My journey didn’t start here—it began with a simple but persistent question: why do the systems designed to support us so often fail the people who need them most?

That question has guided my path across disciplines and sectors. I co-founded KTP to bridge technology and policy for more equitable access to education. I worked in health tech at Epic and Memorial Sloan Kettering, managing digital pathology systems and implementation across high-stakes clinical environments. I led an independent UX research study in Taiwan, designed interactive AR-based science exhibits at TCNJ, and explored reproductive health tech distrust in a post-Roe world through my MTOP research.

Now, I’m expanding that work through a tech-law startup focused on digital justice, privacy, and ethical design—and I’m deepening my foundation with formal training in AI & Privacy Ethics to help shape more responsible, human-centered technologies. Along the way, I’ve spoken to Boards of Education, published research with the United Nations, and built from the ground up when institutions couldn’t meet the moment.

I’m most energized by the intersection of equity, behavior, and design—and I specialize in turning complex, overlooked problems into clear, research-driven solutions that work in the real world.

I enjoy traveling cross country. This was my most recent expedition from Michigan to California.

🏊‍♀️ coaching swimmers as a former U.S. Junior Olympian. Or just swimming around on North Campus :)

🌪️ designing websites on the road. Avatar: The Last Airbender personality quiz (check it out!)

Actively reading more in the summer. Most on data & privacy ethics or data feminism.

Training for a few competitions! Can not wait to see how much I will push myself in the coming months <3

Learning Cello for the first time and getting back into the Violin on my free time :) slowly but surely!
