I’m a PhD student in Human Factors Engineering at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, affiliated with the Cognitive Systems Laboratory. I love my work because it sits at the intersection of my self-exploration and real-world impact.

My research examines how people navigate their role and sense of control when working with increasingly capable AI systems, using interaction design to build more resilient systems. I draw on human factors, cognitive engineering, and the history of automation, and I’m curious how we can design agentic AI to keep humans meaningfully involved, not just in the loop.

In my free time I enjoy tinkering with human input devices, chilling with a pot of tea, or cleaning out my fountain pens.

I am looking for a postdoctoral research position for the upcoming 2027/28 academic year. Click here for my latest resume!
