Hi there,
I'm a 3rd year PhD candidate who conducts interdisciplinary research on immersive game design, language learning and cognitive health, working and collaborating with Dr. Leanne Chukoskie, Dr. Miso Kim, and Dr. Arthur Kramer. My research focuses on adapting a Human-centered design approach into game design for older adults. By leveraging sensory technology (e.g., Heart Rate Sensor, Eye-tracking device) and measuring psychological outcomes, I aim to facilitate the design process and evaluation of playability and efficacy of exercise games in promoting physical and cognitive health.
