I am a fourth year Ph.D. candidate in computer science and National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow (NSF GRFP) at Northwestern University, advised by Professor Eleanor O’Rourke in the Delta Lab. I am a design-based researcher working to understand and support student motivation, self-efficacy, self-assessments, and social learning.
I graduated with a B.S. in computer science and a minor in math from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in May 2022. As an undergrad researcher, my research interests included machine learning for satellite crop monitoring and quantitatively understanding disparities in self and peer evaluations in group work settings.
