About Me

I am a researcher and full-stack developer operating at the intersection of education and technology. Currently a Ph.D. candidate in the ENCORE Lab at OISE (University of Toronto), my work focuses on Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) and Human-AI Collaboration.

Unlike traditional researchers, I don't just study learning environments—I build them. I leverage my background in Python, cloud infrastructure, and full-stack development to create adaptive, technology-supported activity patterns. My research relies on co-designing with practitioners to blend teacher intuition with data-driven insights, resulting in tools that support engagement and co-regulated learning.

Beyond my dissertation, I am the founder of the Crowd Tutor Foundation, a not-for-profit tech startup dedicated to accessible education. You can read more about my technical builds and research on my Projects page.
