Hello! 👋🏽
I'm a Ph.D. Candidate in Human-Centered Design 🎨 & Engineering ⚙️ at the University of Washington in Seattle 🌲
I’m interested in how people make sense of information on the web, including, but not limited to the contexts of breaking news and crisis events, live severe weather tracking, and theorizing with and about other individuals on the internet. I’m also intrigued by the perception of visual informational cues and what goes noticed or unnoticed.
I am a mixed-methods researcher and use combinations of quantitative analytics, interviews, contextual inquiry, and experiments to explore research questions.
Some things that keep me up at night:
<aside> ❓ How do people make sense of breaking news information in visual environments?
</aside>
<aside> ❓ What signals do users consider when trying to decide what information to believe?
</aside>
<aside> ❓ How do users triangulate information across several platforms?
