I am a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Old Dominion University (ODU), where I am advised by Dr. Vikas Ashok and affiliated with the Web Science and Digital Libraries (WS-DL) Research Group.
My research bridges Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to design intelligent systems that make digital spaces accessible, usable, and inclusive for people with disabilities. I focus on:
- 🧩 Non-visual web interaction and screen-reader accessibility
- 🤖 AI-driven adaptive interfaces for blind and neurodivergent users
- 💬 Accessible online communication and conversational systems
- 🧭 Dissertation: Proxy Interfaces for Enhancing Non-Visual Web Usability
- 🧩 Projects: Building Chrome extensions that integrate with local LLMs to improve blind users’ interaction with web content.
- 📚 Recent Publications:
- InSupport: Proxy Interface for Enabling Efficient Non-Visual Interaction with Web Data Records (ACM IUI 2022)
- Semantic Table of Contents for Efficient Web Screen Reading (ACM SAC 2021)
- Enabling Efficient Web Data-Record Interaction for People with Visual Impairments via Proxy Interfaces (ACM TIIS 2023)
- Understanding Blind Users’ Experiences in Online Discussions (IJHCI 2025)
