πŸ‘‹πŸΌ Hi there, I’m Camelia!

πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸ’» I’m a PhD Candidate at Tufts University.

πŸŽ† I work with Remco Chang in the Visual Analytics Lab (VALT).

πŸ“ In my research, I am challenging conventional paradigms in visualization design that tend to focus on specialized solutions tailored to individual users’ data and tasks within specific domains. Some domains of interest are Decision-Making and Healthcare.

πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸŽ“ I graduated with a B.S. in Theoretical Mathematics from the University of Maryland in College Park, where I performed research within the Graphics and Visual Informatics Laboratory (GVIL). There, I was advised by Amitabh Varshney.

πŸ€“ Both before and after starting my PhD, I worked for Tableau Research/Salesforce (Research Scientist Intern), Alife Health (Data Science Contractor), and Bose Corporation (Software Engineering Intern), and I collaborated with professors, research scientists and program managers at the National Revenewable Energy Laboratory, the MIT Lincoln Laboratory, Harvard University, and Worcester Polytechnic Institute.

🌺 Outside academia, I enjoy picking up new hobbies, indulging in Art, Exercising, and Reading.
