About

I am an incoming Master's degree student in Computer Science and Information Engineering at National Taiwan University. I was previously advised by Prof. Mike Y. Chen, and am now advised by Prof. Shan-Yuan Teng at the Dexterous Interaction Lab.

My research focuses on accessibility-oriented interaction design, exploring how technology can help individuals with motor impairments or age-related limitations participate more fully in activities such as digital games and social interaction. In addition, I study how wearable devices can extend human capabilities or interfere with natural interactions, and how users learn to adopt and embody these augmented interaction techniques. More broadly, I am interested in how to design and evaluate interactive systems that enhance human well-being and promote inclusive experiences for diverse user groups.

I also joined the Student Summer Research Fellowship at the University of Chicago in 2025, where I worked with Prof. Pedro Lopes at the Human Computer Integration Lab.
