I owe many thanks to my advisor, mentors, collaborators, friends, and family that have supported me through my PhD. So grateful for the opportunities and looking forward to what’s ahead. For now, back to thesis writing 😄 (2/2)

I’m so happy to share that I’ll be joining Tufts CS as an Assistant Professor in January 2026! 🥳 I’ll be recruiting PhD students this upcoming cycle, so keep an eye out for more info if you’re interested in accessibility, AI, and HCI! (1/2)

nice good to know!

does clipping to the mask work/ is it muffled at all? I might have to give it a try :)

Sad to miss #CHI2025 in person. @masooman.bsky.social will be presenting remotely on Wednesday, results from an interesting cross-level study with design students (pre- and post-genAI) and professionals to understand their different value systems and usage with respect to generative AI in design.

My #CSUN talk is today! 2:20pm. You don't want to miss it. We'll be talking about our personalization + accessibility prototype for our data visualization research at @highcharts.bsky.social.

Takeaways? We built a really cool system + ran 2 research studies. We have loads of guidelines to share.
