Welcome to my academic homepage! I'm a PhD student in the School of Information at UC Berkeley. I study how interfaces shape what we can, and can't, see about the work behind the things we use. My research follows a single question across very different objects: where does value come from, whether that's a farmworker's labor or an artist's idea, and what actually happens when we try to make it visible? I work between critical theory and empirical study, building speculative artifacts and running studies on everything from food supply chain labor to AI's role in art making.

In my past work, I've led and contributed to interdisciplinary teams across academic and applied settings, designing and evaluating AR/VR systems for rehabilitation, training, and cognitive assessment; directing the development of a citizen science platform that uses gamified studies to examine how people perceive and make decisions about technology; and running consumer research on attention, stress, and decision-making.

Outside of work, I enjoy running, practicing yoga, thrifting one of a kind pieces, dancing with friends, and searching for the next best soft serve (curbside creamery is currently the top contender).
