About

I am an experimental HCI researcher studying how human perception, experience, and intention are expressed through digital interaction and movement. My work combines eye tracking, haptics, and XR, multimodal sensing, and digital health technologies to understand human behavior and develop scalable, real-world interactive systems.

I completed my graduate training at the University of Alberta with Dr. Craig Chapman, where I studied perception, movement, and decision-making using behavioral and eye-tracking methods. I then held an Alberta Innovates Digital Health Innovation Postdoctoral Fellowship with Dr. Puneeta Tandon in the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry at the University of Alberta, developing and evaluating markerless motion capture, wearable sensing, and app-based assessment for digital health. I am currently a CNRS postdoctoral researcher with Dr. Yosra Rekik in the MINT team at CRIStAL, University of Lille, France, studying multimodal interaction, haptics, and XR.
