I am a Ph.D. student at Purdue University, specializing in virtual reality and virtual human research. I hold a Master's degree in Computer Graphics Technology and a Bachelor's degree in Animation, both from Purdue University, West Lafayette. I work with my advisor, Dr. Christos Mousas to design and develop VR applications in order to explore user perception in virtual environments. Additionally, I serve as a teaching assistant in the Computer Graphics Technology department. In my spare time, I enjoy painting, photography, and hiking.
