Research
University of Notre Dame
Human-Centered Computing Intern
In the Summer of 2020, I worked on a team of 5 graduate and undergraduate students to conduct research on automating the college application process. To prepare for this, I completed a certificate in PHP and Python Programming, and I utilized D3, a JavaScript library. Through collaborative programming, we created an application to detect sentiment and key words in college application essays. The subsequent research was transformed into a research paper that is still being developed.

From the Fall of 2019 to the Summer of 2020, I conducted research with an NYU Professor on the prevention of fake news and false information on WhatsApp. I interviewed professionals and researchers who studied the short and long term affects of false information on large populations.
