My Research

When I'm not traveling or eating, I'm a full-time research scientist and professor at USC. I have a Ph.D. in human factors psychology which is an experimental branch of applied psychology that focuses on how humans and machines/technology interact. I've spent the last decade trying to understand what 'human' variables (i.e., emotion, personality and physiological response) impact how we perform (especially with technology). I love this type of work because I've been able to focus on topics such as automated driving, affective computing, neuroscience and even user experience.
