🧠 Cognitive Science major
✏️ Design and interaction specialization
💻 Computer Science minor
📚 Philosophy minor

I studied design and interaction at UCSD. I’ve always been interested in a lot of different subjects, so it was difficult to narrow down what I wanted to focus on in college. But I eventually chose to pursue a degree in Cognitive Science because of its interdisciplinary nature, and because I love learning about people, culture, interactions, and how to develop creative solutions to difficult problems.

My design related interests are UX/UI design, HCI, human-robot interaction, and design fiction. At the Healthcare Robotics Lab at UCSD, I'm part of a team that is researching and designing robots to help older adults with dementia and their caregivers.

In my free time I like to consume a lot of media, whether that be binging shows, watching movies, reading books and news articles, scrolling through random Wikipedia pages, or listening to NPR in the car. I also enjoy climbing, writing, hanging out with my two cats, and doing archery.
