I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto and a student researcher at Google Health. I currently work on health sensing techniques and user-centered designs for health applications, advised by Khai N. Truong and Alex Mariakakis. I completed my Bachelors and Masters in Computer Science at Georgia Institute of Technology where I worked with Thad Starner and Neha Kumar. I am honored to have received several notable awards, including the Google PhD Fellowship, Wolfond Fellowship, and GVU Distinguished Masters Student Award.
