Graduate Student
As a 3rd year Engineering Psychology Ph.D. student, I hope to take what we know about human cognition and use it to optimize technology for human use. My current research focuses on the factors that lead to the disuse of smart technology and how we can create educational interventions to improve user satisfaction. I hope that my research can be used to help create decision-making tools to facilitate ethical AI creation and help the end user understand the capabilities and limitations of technology.
