With the #chi2026 reviews coming out, I am posting my regular reminder to folks who do qualitative research. I have been curating a document with common critiques of qual research and how to respond. Check it out and add your own examples!

Come to our talk at #CSCW2025, "Families' Vision of Generative AI Agents for Household Safety" TL;DR: Families prefer multiple AI caregiving agents with privacy boundaries rather than parental control AI.

Just the right mix of sun and wind, right here at home.

A memorable day joining the University of Washington. What struck me most was the warmth of our community, from President Jones' welcoming words to connecting with colleagues. (Hugging Dub was a highlight!) Grateful to be part of UW Tacoma and excited to contribute to our continued excellence. 🐾 💜

Inspired by the recent youth and children digital safety research presented at SOUPS 2025, I reflected on the gap between the evidence of digital risks and the action needed to mitigate them: What would "informed decision-making" look like for families navigating digital risk management?

Nothing beats a run with Mt. Rainier as the backdrop after pushing through deadlines. Gorgeous sunny day!
