I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Computer Science
at the University of Washington, advised by Richard Ladner.
I am interested in computer-based assistive technology for
the blind. I have worked on optical character recognition as well as
tactile graphics and touch screen technology for education. Currently I am
working on phone-based applications for everyday use.
