My doctoral research was on adaptive interaction techniques for sharing and reusing design resources; I officially submitted my dissertation in December of 2007. In my dissertation, I examined the use of augmented paper and digital tools for supporting design practice. My advisor was Professor Scott Klemmer.

Previously, I worked with Professor Terry Winograd on several Interactive Workspaces projects dealing with usability issues in collaborative colocated spaces, as well as course tools and support for mobile interaction designers. I found teaching alongside these professors and mentoring student researchers to be among the most rewarding aspects of graduate study.
