I am an Associate Professor at the School of Interactive Computing at Georgia Tech. I work on responsible and sustainable human-centered computing, investigating infrastructures of care, to inform the design and maintenance of such infrastructures leveraging emerging technologies. Pursuing community-engaged research, I foreground worker-centered perspectives and community wellbeing in contexts surrounding care. My work on planetary care bridges scholarship on sustainability and development in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). I have been awarded the NSF CAREER for my research, in addition to receiving more than a dozen awards and recognitions at premier HCI venues. I am grateful to have been recognized at Georgia Tech for research, teaching, and leadership impact. I have served as President of ACM SIGCHI since 2021 and Chair of the ACM SIG Governing Board since 2024.

I earned my Ph.D. in Information Management Systems from UC Berkeley, specializing in Human—Computer Interaction. I got my Master’s in Computer Science and Education from Stanford University, and Bachelor’s in Computer Science and Applied Math from UC Berkeley.  I worked as Research Associate in the University of Washington, where I was mentored by Profs. Richard Anderson and Gaetano Borriello in Computer Science and Engineering. I was also at USC’s Annenberg School of Communication as a postdoctoral researcher. Many schools and many mascots, but I remain loyal to the California bear <3.
