 About
Me
I am a PhD candidate
in the Informatics Department, the Donald Bren
School of Information and Computer Sciences at the University of California,
Irvine.
My advisor is Dr. David Redmiles. I graduated
from California State University,
Fullerton
with B.S and M.S. in Computer Science many years ago.

Research
My research interests
are technology impact on organizations and work practices, CSCW,
knowledge management, Web 2.0 at work and technology diffusion and
adoption.
I
have been studying a community of knowledge management (KM) practitioners
in the aerospace industry. I am currently studying a Library Services
group in an aerospace company. I am particularly interested in how
service groups promote their practices and tools in the engineering
dominated organization. To analyze my field data, I have adopted the
notions of social worlds and legitimization practices explicated by
Anselm Strauss and Shibutani's reference
group theory.
