RESEARCH
My research vision is to integrate natural language processing, a machine learning technique, with design methods to help designers create sustainable products that are successful in the marketplace. I leverage mass-scale customer-generated online data to aid designers in understanding customer ethnography.
My focus is on identifying sustainable features that have perceived customer value using online reviews and emphasizing them in product descriptions and designs. A summary of my latest research projects is provided below. If you would like more information please feel free to get in touch.
