In the context of socio-technical systems, she is interested in developing systems that are aware of and adapt to human behavior. One key aspect in the development if such systems is the interaction, either between humans, or between humans and the systems they are employing.

In this setting, assessing emotions plays an important role, as emotions can influence decision making, trust, engagement, and how relationships evolve.
