Research

I study how interaction design and data visualization can shape public understanding of social and political issues, particularly those surrounding medical conditions and healthcare policies. With a background in scenic design and data analytics, I am interested in the visual rhetoric of digital platforms (such as social media apps and news websites) and how design choices influence trust, empathy, and interpretation of information.
