With my advisor, Professor Elizabeth Mynatt, I’m researching ways that social computing technologies can affect everyday health behaviors. I’m particularly interested in understanding the interplay between people’s social sense of self and their identities as healthy and active individuals, and I hope to gain insight into the ways computing technologies can mediate and influence behavior change with respect to everyday health and wellness.

This February, I’ll be presenting our paper “The Work of Play: Supporting a Pervasive Health Behavior Change Intervention for US Middle School Students” at CSCW 2012 in Seattle. Use the contact page to get an advance copy of the paper or just say hi. Puns encouraged.
