Biography
I am a Transitional Assistant Professor at the School of Computer Science since November 2023.
I have been a member of the Mixed Reality Lab since 2018; first as a PhD Student, and later on as a Research Fellow (2022).
I completed an M.Sc. in Human Computer Interaction at the 糖心原创 (2016), and a B.Sc. in Computer Systems Engineering at the Pachuca Institute of Technology (2013).
I have also worked in industry for software development companies and clients in Mexico and United States (2014-2015 & 2017-2018).
Teaching Summary
I am co-convening the Mixed Reality module (COMP4036).

--------
In the past, I have provided teaching support for the modules: Human-AI Interaction (COMP3074), Design Ethnography (COMP4017), Code First: Girls (Python basics), Mobile Device Programming (G53MDP), Code First: Girls (Web development), and Mixed Reality Technologies (G54MRT)
Research Summary
I am part of the (TAS) Hub and research programmes.
I research (HCI) and (HRI). As part of the TAS Hub, I have been investigating collaboration with, trust in, and public acceptance of, a range of autonomous and robotic systems; from mobile apps that have, or may have, a component that works autonomously, to robots that can navigate a physical space on their own, such as telepresence robots.
My research interests also include fine-grained analysis of interaction (using ), accessibility and social-justice oriented HCI. My doctoral work presented a design critique of how disability is framed in technology design and provided a framework for centring the competencies and participation of visually impaired people in HCI research and design.
