I am a SUTD-MIT postdoc at the Interactive Robotics Group (IRG). My primary research goal is to model the complex relationship between trust in and dependence on automation and to develop design solutions that facilitate better calibration of trust towards automation. My research interests include human robot interaction, human factors in high risk scenarios and user experience design.

Prior to joining IRG, I worked as a post-doc at Singapore University of Technology and Design, and a user experience designer at the Experience Design Group of Dell. I earned a PhD and a Masters degree in human factors engineering, from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.
