XR Developer | HCI Researcher.

As a Research Fellow based in Singapore, I am currently working on the largest VR dataset project in collaboration with Meta and NUS, to study motion sickness in virtual reality. My work involves innovative AR/VR applications aimed at solving industrial problems. My Ph.D. research at the Empathic Computing Lab, The University of Auckland, focuses on using multimodal inputs for remote collaboration and scene reconstruction.

My educational background includes a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction from the Human Interface Lab, University of Canterbury in 2018, where my research centered on integrating haptic devices in VR, a project sponsored by MBIE. Professionally, I have over three years of experience in IT, spanning XR development and web technologies, including airline IT product development. My expertise covers Unity and Unreal Game Engines, programming in C#, C++, Java, JavaScript, Angular, and Node.js, and agile development methodologies. I am also working towards the commercialization of my research.
