Human-Centered Computing
Universitetsparken 1,
2100 København Ø, Denmark

I am a tenure-track assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Copenhagen. Previously, I was an NSERC postdoctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems with Dr. Katherine J. Kuchenbecker and a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of British Columbia with Professor Karon E. MacLean.

My research is at the intersection of human-computer interaction, programmable touch technology (haptics), and social robotics. Specifically, I study how users interact with and make sense of haptic feedback from devices and robots. With this foundation, I design touch experiences that are meaningful and pleasant, and I build collections and software tools that facilitate creation and adaptation of touch experiences by end-users, novice designers, and haptics experts. I led the creation of Haptipedia, VibViz, and LearnHaptics. I was also involved in LocomotionVault.

I am the program co-chair for Eurohaptics 2022 in Hamburg with Prof. Astrid Kappers.

I am looking for graduate (Ph.D., MSc.) and undergraduate students. Contact me at hs@di.ku.dk to learn more.
