Howdy! 

This platform is my personal bulletin board, where I share updates on my publications, the latest experiments, and some cool graduate life experiences! Beyond academics, I love going on road trips, hiking (sometimes hate it!), reading (especially on how social dynamics affect human relationships!), and café hopping to find the coziest study nook. 

I am a PhD Student in Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University. I am part of the Neuroergonomics Laboratory (UW-Madison) and the Advanced Robotics Laboratory (Texas A&M). I work on evaluating human-machine interaction to understand the cognitive/physical impacts of new or existing interventions and how they affect the user in the loop. 

I'm constantly asking (and attempting to answer) questions like: How does technology impact human physical and cognitive performance? and How does human acceptance shape the evolution of technology?
