School of Computer and Cyber Sciences, Augusta University
I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Computer and Cyber Sciences at Augusta University. My research sits at the intersection of ubiquitous computing, physical sensing, and human-computer interaction, specifically around user-adaptive interaction for wearable devices, multimedia signal analysis, and privacy-preserving wireless sensing for health and smart environments.
Before joining Augusta University in 2022, I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Florida State University under the supervision of Prof. Jie Yang. My work has appeared at UbiComp, CHI, ACSAC, HICSS, and IEEE TMC.
When not running experiments or advising students, I'm a big fan of video games, MTG, and D&D.
Pioneering acoustic, biomechanical, and physiological sensing — ear canal deformation, lip articulation dynamics, jaw motion — for continuous, implicit interaction on head-worn wearable devices.
Developing physical-layer and behavioral methods that verify media authenticity through physical signals — presence detection via lip articulation dynamics and RF-based motion analysis.
Building RF and acoustic sensing systems (WiFi, UWB radar) that extract behavioral and environmental information without cameras, enabling privacy-preserving health and environmental monitoring.
