Hi! I am Yong-Han, currently a human-computer interaction researcher in the Mobile and Ubiquitous Interaction Lab. I am privileged to be advised by Dr. Yung-Ju (Stanley) Chang.

My research interests lie in human-computer interaction (HCI) and human-centered AI. I am interested in designing, building, and studying technologies that empower end-users. In my recent work, I designed and built a notification management system to facilitate users' workflows in handling notifications. This was achieved through automated sorting and categorization, complemented by manual functions for users to adjust these automations. I also studied users' experiences with this system by using mixed-methods.

In the past, I did my undergrad in computer science at the National Yang-Ming Chiao-Tung University (former: National Chiao-Tung University). I also worked in the Polytechnique Montréal Human-Centered Design Lab as a research intern, and at Xaduro (a travel tech startup) as a software engineering intern.

📢 I'm applying for M.S./Ph.D. starting in 2025 Fall! If you know of any opportunities that might be a good fit, please send me an email. I'm always happy to connect, chat, and collaborate with others.
