I am an interaction builder. I am excited about discovering and enabling novel sensing and interaction techniques that challenge the existing ways of using a digital device. My ultimate research mission is to approximate the future by building it today. I am a 2nd year PhD student in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute in Carnegie Mellon University, working with Prof. Scott Hudson and Prof. Jen Mankoff.

These sensors enable motion-gesture inputs, as well sensing the context of how the user is holding or using the stylus, even when the pen is not in contact with the tablet screen. | ||||
