Work with thought leaders and academic experts from Academy of Art University

I'm an early-career Cyber & Media Psychologist and AI Researcher with growing experience in Emotion AI, affective computing, and all facets of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). I'm skilled in evaluating the psychological impact of AI-driven emotional technologies in media and digital interactions. In the past two years, I'm often asked to present, speak on and/or train stakeholders, client-facing teams, or scholarly groups on a wide range of cyberpsychological or media psychological topics. As a result, I'm becoming a credible media source for topics pertaining to digital culture, AI ethics, transhumanism, and more. Currently, I'm : * Seeking research and/or consulting opportunities in AI with strong, human-first AI ethics and responsible tech focus * Passionate about ethical AI development and emotion AI in the realm of social bots, humanoids, and other robotics * Presently working on[ dissertation research for PhD in Psychology with an emphasis in Media & Technology](https://catalog.fielding.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=12&poid=699) * Trained media psychologist with concentrations in Positive Media, Psychology of Image, Psychology of Social Media, and more My extensive and prior application development and user experience design for enterprise-wide applications in private sector and digital agency environments allows me to offer rich context in real-world scenarios so I'm well-versed in aligning cyber/media psychological contexts to business requirements and more. As a full-time doctoral student currently working on dissertation research, I've limited my work experience over the past 3-5 years but am always picking up speaking engagements, writing and research projects, and teaching or training opportunities along the way to keep growing my experience well beyond the bounds of academics. Lastly, my multidisciplinary background allows me to contribute, speak or consult on a wide range of topics well beyond my deepening social sciences and cyberpsychological foundation. <br>
