Bio

Hello! I’m a Master’s student in Computer Science exploring the intersection of wearable technology, human-centered computing, and sensing systems. At the Interactive Organisms Lab, my research focuses on colorimetric microfluidic devices and companion mobile applications that translate sensor data into clear, user-centered health insights. 

My work spans rapid device development and evaluation, user testing, and end-to-end mobile app development. Through interdisciplinary collaboration, I bridge sensing systems, software, and interaction design, with an emphasis on accessibility, usability, and woman-centered, inclusive approaches in health-focused sensing system
