I am an assistant professor in the College of Information Sciences and Technology (IST) at Penn State. In Spring 2019, I received a Ph.D. degree in information and computer sciences under the supervision of Dr. Yunan Chen from the Department of Informatics at the University of California, Irvine.

​

My research lies at the intersection of Health Informatics, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), and Computer Supported Collaborative Work (CSCW). Currently, my work focuses on transparency, privacy, security, and safety in health technologies. For more information, please see the 'Recent Projects' page.

 

In addition to my health technology research, I have extensively collaborated with machine learning and HCI researchers on various topics such as self-tracking, mobile payment design, video game player experience, governance of online disruptive behaviors, and the role of social media in civic engagement.
