Eunmi (Ellie) Jeong
Ph.D. student in the Information School at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
My research interests center on understanding user motivations, experiences, and behaviors in organizational contexts when interacting with information technologies. I explore the underlying factors that influence user experiences and behaviors. Specifically, I investigate the unique needs and motivations of diverse user groups who engage with information technologies. My ultimate research goal is to develop design frameworks for user-centered information technologies that effectively serve diverse user populations and optimize their experiences.
