I am a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. I am advised by Peter Washington in Division of Clinical Informatics and Digital Transformation (DoC-IT) in the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF).
My research explores the intersection of AI, HCI, and Digital Health, with a focus on applying cutting-edge AI and HCI approaches to solve multifaceted problems in healthcare. My research includes :
Human‑Centered AI for Digital Health via Wearables: Exploring how AI can transform raw data streams from smartwatches, fitness bands, and other body-worn sensors into actionable, patient-friendly insights. My goal is to enable real-time feedback loops on everyday devices that support personalized interventions and long-term behavior change.
Fair and Efficient Adaptation in Medical AI: Designing domain-adaptive and parameter-efficient learning methods that generalize across patient populations, clinical settings, and sensing devices. I focus on adapting foundation models to new hospitals or demographics with minimal fine-tuning, improving data efficiency, and ensuring fairness and reliability in healthcare applications.
