Research and Practice

My research examines how domain scientists carry out data-intensive collaborative knowledge work. I study the coordinative work of producing and integrating large, heterogeneous datasets for analysis with AI/ML methods, and how that work is reshaping both scientific discovery and the ways trust is established in data, algorithms, and results.

I also bring experience leading user research efforts to define and evaluate AI-powered experiences in scientific and industry settings, from an oceanographic data portal to assistive eyewear for people with low vision.
