Introduction
Hello! My name is Arissa and I'm a User Experience (UX) Researcher! My focus is on designing systems that spark collaboration in creative and learning contexts. Outside of research, I enjoy crafting with beads and wire, as well as photographing thoughtful designs around town.
Top Fields

Research Areas
This mentor can support projects in human-computer interaction, human-AI interaction, robotics, and human-centered design. Their interests are especially aligned with projects that examine how people interact with technology, AI systems, and robotic systems.
Background
I am a mixed-methods UX researcher with over seven years of experience investigating how technology can spark collaboration among people, with a particular focus on AI-supported communication and learning systems. I have examined how generative AI can serve as a scaffold for learning to program, as well as power telepresence robots to provide remote museum visitors with immersive experiences. Across my work, I design and conduct end-to-end studies, analyze qualitative and quantitative data, and translate findings into design insights that inform the development of more intuitive, collaborative technologies.
