Exploring opportunities in media technology

Technical Program Manager | Google (via Magnit)

Expressive Computation Lab | UC Santa Barbara

Class of 2018 | Princeton University

 My work spans human-computer interaction, systems design and engineering. I’m interested in the ways that computation can transform how people make and interact with visual content. I’m constantly looking for opportunities to shape and deliver innovative technology that transforms how people experience media.

I have designed and built systems that address these problem areas through formative research and software design & development. I believe that media technology that manifests innovation, delightfulness and open-mindedness can improve human experiences across storytelling, communication, and entertainment.

Currently, I’m at Google (via Magnit) where I am a TPM for a Gen AI / Bard program. Previously in the same role, I contributed to projects across Google’s consumer portfolio including Android & Pixel.

I completed an M.S. in Computer Science, advised by Professor Jennifer Jacobs from the University of California Santa Barbara. I invented a novel interaction method, Drawing Transforms (d•ts), that lets visual creators use manually-drawn input to author procedural behaviors that create and control artwork. I also hold a B.S.E in Computer Science from Princeton University, where I specialized in computer graphics, machine learning, art & intercultural analysis. 

I bring strong teamwork and communication skills to the table.

I’ve grown teams from the ground up, transformed, and scaled organizations. Most recently, I restarted UCSB Women in Computer Science from the ground up. Our board organized 5 career panels with over 300 attendees, founded a CS mentorship program, and hosted diversity & inclusion spaces.

My article Every Color is Beautiful was shared by the Princeton University Art Museum and the Chihuly Foundation. Another piece Building Software for Artists was published in the UX Collective and has been read over 3.5k times.
