[ABOUT]

[CAPABILITIES]

My research integrates affective computing, human-computer interaction, and computational graphics to create intelligent systems that enhance well-being and accessibility. By harnessing computational methods, creative coding, and advanced design technologies, I develop innovative, human-centered solutions that reflect the complexity and diversity of human experiences, advancing inclusive and transformative design practices.

The Mission

I DESIGN HUMAN-CENTERED TECHNOLOGIES BY BRIDGING AI, COMPUTATION, FABRICATION, AND INTERACTION DESIGN.

[01 Understand the Problem]

Every project begins with understanding people, context, and technical constraints. I combine design research, systems thinking, and emerging technologies to uncover meaningful opportunities and define solutions grounded in real human needs.

[02 Explore Through Making]

I use computational design, AI, robotics, and digital fabrication to rapidly prototype ideas across digital and physical media. Building early allows me to test concepts, refine interactions, and transform research into functional systems.

[03 Design for People]

Technology is most valuable when it feels intuitive and purposeful. I design products and experiences that simplify complexity, encourage engagement, and create meaningful connections between people and intelligent systems.
