Amanda is a Ph.D. Candidate advised by Dr. Kristy Boyer in the Department of Computer & Information Science & Engineering. She is working on the development of a co-creative dialogue system for the EarSketch CAI project. Her research interests include CS education, AI, and adaptive learning. She hopes that her research will positively impact the computer science community by increasing engagement and participation from underrepresented groups.
