I am an Assistant Professor in the Division of Clinical Informatics and Digital Transformation (DoC-IT) in the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Prior to this role, I was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Information and Computer Sciences at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. My research group at UCSF, funded by both the NIH and NSF, works on consumer digital health informatics, with an emphasis on human-centered AI approaches spanning personalization, fairness, human-AI interaction, explainability, privacy, and trustworthiness applied to the context of creating diagnostics, therapeutics, and monitoring tools using wearables, smartphones, and specialized health hardware.
