I am an assistant professor of computer science, psychology, and industrial engineering at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and the director of the Wisconsin Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory. I received my PhD degree from Carnegie Mellon University‘s Human-Computer Interaction Institute.
My research program explores how robotic technologies might be designed to help people learn, communicative, and work and draws on an interdisciplinary design research process that combines aspects of computer science, social and cognitive sciences, and design.
