I am a Researcher at AT&T Labs.

I recently graduated from the University of California, San Diego, where I worked with Bill Griswold and Jim Hollan. I received my BS in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley in 2004. While at Berkeley, I worked with Marti Hearst and John Canny.

My dissertation research was on designing easily learnable eyes-free interaction. By exploiting past human experience, we can generate tactile messages with pre-learned meaning. More broadly, I am also interested in mobile computing, novel interaction techniques and various other topics in Ubiquitous Computing and Human Computer Interaction.

I've also spent a number of summers at Microsoft Research, working with some great folks ( Patrick Baudisch, Scott Counts, and Tim Regan ).
