Causal Discovery with Tetrad in LearnSphere’s Tigris
I am a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute advised by Dr. Jean Oh.
My research goal is to lower the barriers that people face in performing acts of creativity such as painting,
composing music, or creating video content by supporting creative expression with artificial intelligence.
In particular, I am creating AI tools that generate visual content using elementary skills such as language
and decisions as input. Such tools can enable people with a lack of mobility or cognitive impairments
to engage in creative expression and art as therapy using the skills and abilities that they do have.
Full-stack, lead developer on the Personalized Learning² project; addressing the opportunity gap for marginalized students. Created an interface for teachers and mentors at public schools in the Pittsburgh region to view data from their students’ usage of multiple Math tutoring software and access resources to intervene on students’ motivational and cognitive obstacles. Gave input on the designing of the tool and managed multiple design interns throughout its development process.
Contributed improvements in full stack development to LearnSphere’s Tigris: An online workflow tool for analyzing, visualizing, and mining educational data
Presented and taught at workshops and CMU courses. Created videos to teach the software tools I contributed to.
