Hello! My name is
Ticha pronounced "TEE-shuh"
and I am a visual artist and PhD candidate in the HCI Engineering Group at MIT. My research has been generously supported by the 2019 MIT Stata Family Presidential Fellowship and 2021 Siebel Scholars Award.

My research focuses on how to build computing systems that support, or extend, ways that people create visual media. This can come in the form of computational tools that democratize expert techniques for producing visual content, to low-cost methods for bringing interactive visual media into the physical world.

Outside of research, I love to paint, play
music currently: piano, guitar, bass, ukulele, voice
(sometimes in a band), and sporadically compose!
