I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at IRIT at Université Paul Sabatier in Toulouse, after spending 18 months as a postdoctoral researher at the In Situ lab at INRIA Saclay. My research interests lie in the area of Human-Computer Interaction. I have completed my Ph.D. at the DGP lab in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto. My previous work has focused on the design and evaluation of user interfaces and novel interaction techniques, particularly in the areas of personalized and adaptable user interfaces, paper interfaces, and hypermedia systems.
Prior to my Ph.D., I earned a M.Sc. degree from the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto. I finished my undergraduate degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens.
