I am an assistant professor of Computer Science and Software Engineering at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. My teaching is focus around computer architecture, software requirements engineering, and human-centered computing. My research interests involve applying ethnographic methods of inquiry to human-computer interaction (HCI), computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW), and CS education. I direct the Ethnography Research Group at Rose-Hulman.
I earned my doctorate in Informatics from Indiana University Bloomington's (IU) Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering with a track in Human Computer Interaction Design (HCI/d). I worked in Norman Su’s Authentic User Experience Lab on examining video game livestreamers and how this subculture’s practices inform livestream interaction design. Prior to graduate school, I studied computer engineering and computer science at the University of Southern California.
