My research program examines the dynamic interplay between cognition and emotion while individuals and groups engage in complex real-world tasks. I apply insights gleaned from this basic research program to develop intelligent technologies that help people achieve to their fullest potential by coordinating what they think and feel with what they know and do. My work requires theoretical and translational integration of the computing, cognitive, affective, social, and learning sciences.
