The PhD news: Year four is underway. I’m currently recruiting for an interview/data collection study involving money behaviors and bipolar disorder. We’re aiming to design personalized, privacy-preserving, supportive financial technologies tailored to this illness. These days I’m pinching myself that I get to think about this so deeply.

I’ll be traveling to Japan for CHI 2025 where I’m co-organizing a workshop The Future of Money and HCI. I’m also planning to attend ISBD 2025. So I’ll be running laps to Tokyo. Thankfully.

I’m really enjoying reading Ways of Seeing by John Berger. I’m also excited for All Media is Training Data by Holly Herndon & Mat Dryhurst.
