I’m a recent graduate in Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Washington. My primary research interests are at the intersection of sensor systems, data management and HCI. Specifically, I design tools and data management infrastructure to support users in understanding and interacting with context-aware computing systems. My research is also strongly oriented toward user studies with web-based, mobile and sensor research platforms. A side interest has been in techniques for privacy protection in context-aware applications.

I have a B.Sc. in Computer Science and Mathematics from the University of Toronto. and an M.S. in Computer Science & Engineering from the University of Washington. I’ve worked for both Intel Research and Microsoft Research and I was the lead graduate student on the RFID Ecosystem project. My advisors were Prof. Magdalena Balazinska and Prof. Gaetano Borriello. I'm currently at Nokia Research Center in Palo Alto.
