I am a Senior Research Scientist at Google. I am broadly interested in Human-Computer Interaction,
especially gesture-based mobile interaction, activity-based computing and rapid prototyping tools.
I wrote Gesture Search, a tool for searching Android-powered devices by drawing alphabet gestures. I shipped the Gesture Library to Android SDK. Before joining Google's Research Team, I was a Research Associate in Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Washington and helped found the DUB (Design:Use:Build), a cross-campus HCI community. I earned a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and then did my postdoctoral research in EECS at the University of California at Berkeley. |
