I'm a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Chicago, advised by Dr. Ken Nakagaki. My interests lie in tangible interaction and actuation technology. I develop actuators to augment everyday objects and environments, enabling users to transform passive items into dynamic, interactive, and adaptive entities with minimal effort. Outside of research I like reading and bouldering.
