Research Scientist Intern at Infosys

Since June 2026, I have been at Infosys' Center for Autonomous Learning as a Design Research Intern, conducting mixed-methods research on last-mile delivery robots (LMDRs). I am especially interested in how perceptible these systems' signals and cues are — who they actually work for, and who they leave behind.

AFB National Report on AI & Disability

I contributed as a co-author to the American Foundation for the Blind's national report, "The AI Quagmire: Benefits, Risks, and User Aspirations Through a Disability Lens." Drawing on a survey of over 1,700 Americans with and without disabilities, the report examines how people are using AI, the barriers and risks disabled users face, and actionable recommendations for developers, employers, educators, and policymakers. You can read the full report on AFB's website.
