Hi, I'm Angie! I'm a PhD candidate at MIT CSAIL advised by Arvind Satyanarayan in the Visualization Group. My research focuses on improving human-AI alignment by designing interfaces that communicate model representations and methods to shift them toward people's expectations. I am honored to have my research supported by the MIT John Jarve Fellowship and Apple Scholars in AI/ML PhD Fellowship.
Previously, I received my SB and MEng in computer science from MIT, where I worked with Jim Glass and David Harwath in the Spoken Language Systems Group. Throughout my PhD, I've interned at Apple Research with Fred Hohman and IBM Research with Hendrik Strobelt.
