I am a Ph.D. student in the Digital Media Program and a researcher in the Augmented Environments Lab at the Georgia Institute of Technology. My research focuses on the technological affordances of Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality to uncover the emergent conventions of these new mediums. In my work, I pursue mixed methods research that involves both interpretive and analytical approaches. With a background in Computer Graphics Technology, I develop interactive VR and AR experiences and examine the user experience to investigate the impact on user perception and behavior in these systems.
I am also passionate about causes related to climate change, animal conservation, and environmental education.
