My research focuses on designing responsible Human-AI interaction that aligns socioaffective human values. I am interested in the societal and psychological impact of AI. Grounded in my interdisciplinary background in psychotherapy, software engineering, digital mental health, and industrial design, I investigate how to align AI systems with diverse human values and emotional needs — before irreversible risks occur.
