Announcements

I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Oberlin College.

Prior to Oberlin, I was a Visiting Assistant Professor at Williams College and received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Cornell University in 2020. I started my liberal arts experience at Swarthmore College, where I completed a B.A. in Mathematics & Computer Science.

A full CV is available here.

Teaching

I teach courses across the Oberlin CS curriculum from CS1 to Programming Languages to HCI. I am teaching the following courses in Spring 2024:

CSCI 275: Programming Abstractions
This course covers programming languages fundamentals and functional programming in Racket.
CSCI 317: People-Powered Procedures
This course overviews the many ways people contribute to the programming pipeline, including data labeling, human aspects of software engineering, and AI interaction.

Research

I'm interested in bridging the gap between powerful computational methods and the human-centered world. Specifically, my work considers how methods that are newly practical can be adapted to solve complex human problems in meaningful ways. This work has been made possible by my collaborators and co-authors.

I am grateful for support from the National Science Foundation to explore these questions.
