Early life

[edit]

Mai Lee Chang was born the older of four in Thailand in the Ban Vinai Refugee Camp during the Vietnam War. In 1992, her family settled in the United States in Fresno, California when she was six years old.[1] Chang received her high school diploma from Oshkosh North High School.[2] She received her Bachelor's in Engineering Mechanics and Astronautics with a certificate in International Engineering and a Master's in Industrial and Systems Engineering, from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Chang earned her Ph.D. at the University of Texas at Austin in Electrical and Computer Engineering under Andrea Thomaz with a dissertation titled Optimizing for task performance and fairness in human-robot teams in 2022.[3][4]

Career and publications

[edit]

In 2012, Chang began working at NASA Johnson Space Center in the Human Systems Engineering & Development Division, in which she researches and develops technology in the fields of human-robot interaction and human-automation interaction.[5] She is currently a postdoctoral fellow in Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University with Dr. John Zimmerman and Dr. Jodi Forlizzi.[4] Her current research is a part of the AI Institute for Collaborative Assistance and Responsive Interaction for Networked Groups (AI-Caring), a National Artificial Intelligence (AI) Research Institute funded by the National Science Foundation.[4][6]
