Welcome
I am a computer scientist interested in studying artificial social intelligence in robots. In general, I am interested in modeling human social behaviors to enable more seamless interactions with robots.
Currently, I am a Ph.D. student at Yale University working with Marynel Vázquez in the Yale Interactive Machines Group. My current projects include studying methods for modeling robot social norm violations in group interactions. I am also working on a robot photographer that I am building and deploying at Yale to facilitate data collection for group interactions with robots.
Outside of my academic work, I am passionate about board games and baking bread.
