I am an assistant professor at Hamilton College with a focus on Human-Centered Computing. Before joining Hamilton, I was a Roman Family Teaching and Research Fellow at Barnard College. I received my PhD in August 2019 at the University of Florida with Dr. Jaime Ruiz as my adviser. Before joining UF, I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science from Montana State University in 2013, followed by an M.S. in Computer Science at Colorado State University in 2015.

My current research interests include supporting collaborative research activities, natural user interfaces for mobile devices and wearables, and promoting accessibility in computer science education. For more information about some of my research projects, visit my research page.

In November 2014, I helped found Colorado State University’s ACM-W chapter. In addition, I participated in events for the local Women who Code organization. I hope to continue to promote and support women in Computer Science and STEM by engaging in outreach in the future, and am proud to be an AiiCE Affiliate.

OFFICE HOURS

Office hours are open to students in my classes, to Hamilton students interested in computer science, and really to any Hamilton student, to join me for one-on-one time for conversation, discussion, and questions regarding my classes, the CS concentration at Hamilton, HCI, or other related topics. If that’s you, you can drop in at any time during my office hours.

For Spring 2024, my office hours will be Tuesdays 10am – 12pm and Thursdays 2pm-5pm. Additional office hours are by appointment only and are subject to availability; to schedule, contact me via email.
