About Me

I am a Computer Science PhD candidate at Northeastern University in Khoury College of Computer Sciences and a member of the Human-Data Interaction Team (HDI) at the Roux Institute. I am advised by Dr. Mahsan Nourani and Dr. Christo Wilson. My interests are broadly in Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) and Responsible AI. Specifically, I focus on how “place” shapes AI adoption and impact. I define place broadly: the lived experiences of individuals, the characteristics of their communities, and their local values. Through this lens, I center voices from underrepresented communities and create pathways toward AI systems that are contextually relevant and equitable.

I graduated from Arcadia University in 2023 with a B.S. in Data Science and a minor in Computer Science.

In my free time, I enjoy doing pilates, cooking and baking, and taking care of my growing plant collection!

Please reach out!

I am always happy to connect with and mentor students, especially those similar to me from SLACs (small liberal arts college) or FGLI (first generation, low income) backgrounds, who are interested in research.
