I am a fourth year Ph.D. student at SMART Lab, advised by Prof. Huaishu, Peng. My research is centered on Accessibility and Embodied AI within the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). I am passionate about designing and developing accessible interfaces and on-body devices to create immersive digital experiences for blind users.

Before joining the SMART Lab, I obtained my Master of Science degree in Telecommunication, Electrical Engineering from University of Maryland, College Park and my Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from Virginia Tech, Blacksburg.

I am actively looking for an internship position in the summer of 2025.
