I am a second-year PhD student in the Human-centred Computing research group at University of Dundee, under the supervision of Dr Michael Crabb and Dr Jacky Visser.
My work lies at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) that aims for enhancing the subtitles' accessibility during media consumption, especially for people who are impaired by reading, via seeking alternative formats of text representation.
I have graduated from King's College London in MSci Computer Science.
I enjoy solving problems that rely on human perspective, which infers my future career path as a User-Experience (UX) researcher.
