Building tools_
for science learning

I'm a PhD student in Technology, Media, and Learning at Teachers College, Columbia University, advised by Paulo Blikstein in the Transformative Learning Technologies Lab. I study how the design, interfaces, and algorithmic architectures of physical toolkits, AI, and social networks shape how the public participates in scientific practices.

My work draws on constructionism, critical pedagogy, and sociotechnical perspectives on learning. I'm the inventor of Lab-on-a-Book and the Program Manager of the Paulo Freire Initiative.
