I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Computer Science at the University of Bath, where I lead the Advanced Interaction and Sensing (AIS) Lab. My research focuses on enabling computing in situations where traditional input methods are impractical, especially when users' hands are occupied. I create easy-to-use interaction techniques that combine user-centered design, data-driven insights, and real-time machine learning. This work has significant practical applications in scenarios like controlling mobile devices, smarter environments, enhancing healthcare. My work has been published in top Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) journals and conferences, like ACM TOCHI, CHI, UIST, and DIS.

​

I received my Ph.D. from the Human-Computer Interaction group at the Max Planck Institute and Saarland University, advised by Prof. Jürgen Steimle, and my master’s at the Media Interaction Lab with Prof. Michael Haller.

My previous experience spans both industrial and academic labs. I have worked at Meta Reality Labs with Dr. Stephanie Santosa and Prof. Tovi Grossman, at the University of Copenhagen with Prof. Daniel Ashbrook, and at the National University of Singapore with Prof. Ellen Yi-Luen Do. I have also contributed to open-source communities (Mozilla, Python), and partnered with neurologists at UBC Hospital Parkinson’s Research Group.

Outside work, I enjoy collecting fountain pens, cracking puns, and strolling around cities. I am always happy to discuss interaction design, ML pipelines, or share my experiences of working in diverse environments. Feel free to reach out via email.
