about me

❯

Hi my name is Lauren! My academic interests include visual and interactive computing, Artificial Intelligence, and UI/UX design. I'm working on a portfolio of projects to improve my development and design skills.

In my free time I like to draw, paint, and read. I also love playing music and beach volleyball. I watch as many sunrises and sunsets as possible. I want to explore new cities and the ocean. (Currently working on my Open Water Diving certification!)

My recent project with ROSIE Lab!

My project is called "Aware Like an Animal."

We researched interactions between people and virtual agents, towards the overall goal of making believable, interaction-aware virtual characters.

As the undergraduate research assistant, I analyzed and annotated participants' videos. I helped to edit and proofread the paper, and participated and collaborated in meetings. I also created a supplementary video and website using REACT, overviewing our project to submit to CHI '24 and IROS '24.
