Lea Albaugh
Human-Computer Interaction
Ph.D. Student
About
I am a PhD student at the Carnegie Mellon University Human-Computer Interaction Institute, working with the Morphing Matter Lab and the DevLab, and informally with the Textiles Lab. My previous affiliations include Disney Research, the STUDIO for Creative Inquiry, the Recurse Center, and the MAKESHOP at Children's Museum of Pittsburgh.
