I'm an Assistant Professor at the Department of Computer Science, University of Rochester. I serve as co-director of ROCHCI Group and lead BEAR Lab. I'm part of the AR/VR Initiative at University of Rochester as a participating faculty. Prior to this, I worked as a postdoc in Augmented Perception Lab at Carnegie Mellon University. I got my Ph.D. degree from Tsinghua University.
My research is focused in the intersection area of Human-Computer Interaction and Mixed Reality. I publish at ACM CHI, UIST, IMWUT, and IEEE VR, with two Best Paper Honorable Mention Awards from CHI 20' and 23', and one Best Paper Nominee Award from VR 23'. I had the great pleasure to work as CHI 24 Late Breaking Work Co-chair with Yomna and Maarten.
