About
A concise overview of my academic trajectory, research values, and the bridge between my PhD and postdoctoral work.
Profile
I am a human-centered AI and accessibility researcher working across immersive XR, audio description, multimodal interaction, and healthcare AI. My work asks how intelligent systems can support richer experiences, better decisions, and more inclusive access.
I completed my PhD in Information Systems at NJIT, where my dissertation focused on immersive, interactive, intelligent, and individualized audio description for 360° virtual reality musical performances.
Current Direction
As a postdoctoral researcher at Rutgers Health, I work on critical-care AI, ICU temporal modeling, digital twins, and state-action reasoning. The context is different from VR performances, but the research question remains human-centered: how can technology become more context-aware and useful in real life?

Core Values
Access as Design
Accessibility is not a patch after the system is built; it shapes the system’s architecture, interaction, and evaluation.
Human-Centered AI
AI systems should be evaluated not only by model performance but also by human usefulness, uncertainty, context, and workflow fit.
Clear Communication
Research should be understandable to collaborators, participants, practitioners, and future students who may build on it.
