At UC Berkeley’s ACE Lab and UC Riverside, I design and manage AI tools that enhance communication and learning. I focus on creating ethical, human-centered AI products that bridge research and real-world impact.

Trained U-Net models in PyTorch on synthetic and real-world datasets (12k+ images) to generate RGB and amodal masks, enabling computer vision systems to achieve object permanence and detect occluded objects. Results were evaluated with custom metrics and presented to laboratory staff.

Conduct competitive analysis, backend research, and design detailed user flows to shape emotionally intelligent AI interactions. My work blends product research, UX strategy, and conversational design to create sensitive, human-centered communication experiences.

At Fremont Elementary, I served as a TA, providing personalized academic support to classes of 20+ students. I focused on building their confidence and helping them achieve their learning goals through tailored guidance.

At Bobby Bonds Teen Camp, I led activities and mentored teens, creating a fun and inclusive environment. Working with 20-30 campers, I promoted teamwork, leadership, and personal growth throughout the program.

I have led community service projects with up to 70 volunteers, organizing initiatives for sustainability, beautification, and engagement. I’ve also contributed to events like the UCI Beach Cleanup, Riverside Alley Cleanup, Villegas Park Halloween Fair, and a Cult Cinema showing.
