I chose to pursue my degree because I care about access - to me, the experiences (small or big) we can access shape our participation in society. As a human-computer interaction researcher, I seek to understand how technology can support the creation of access opportunities to historically excluded communities in the domain of health and I am especially interested in how this may be achieved through meaningful social interactions and community-centred technological interventions.

 

At Georgia tech, I work in the Wellness Technology lab led by Dr. Andrea Parker. I explore how technology can support the wellbeing of Black and marginalised communiities through designing health interventions, investigating how we can design for collective action and solidarity in mutual aid, and understanding the relationship between mental health and perinatal Black women's online behaviour. 

​

Im interested in any work that is concerned with technology and social justice, particularly in understanding how tangible social support can be delivered to communities in need through current and emerging technologies.
