I am officially a PhD Candidate!

🎉 Exciting news — I’m officially a PhD Candidate! I’m excited to share that I passed my PhD preliminary exam in the Human Factors and Ergonomics program at the College of Design, University of Minnesota!

My dissertation research will focus on rural computing, and I’m excited to now fully dive into my dissertation.

None of this would have been possible without my incredible advisor, Professor Ji Youn Shin, and my other committee members, Professor Barry Kudrowitz, Professor Rajesh Rajamani, and Professor May SunMin Hwang, whose guidance and belief in me made all the difference.

On to the dissertation!
