Welcome!
My name is Chris (Yue) Fu, and I am currently a third-year Ph.D. at the University of Washington. My research interests are AI for behavior change, AI-mediated communication, AI-supported relationships and emotions, and LLM-powered conversational agents. I work with Prof. Alexis Hiniker in the User Empowerment Lab. In addition, I have had the opportunity to collaborate with Prof. Wanda Pratt and Prof. Jacob O. Wobbrock.

A Little Bit About Me
I used to work in the industry in the San Francisco Bay Area before moving up to Seattle in 2021. It took me a year to get used to the almost never-ending Seattle winter without much sun, but now I really like the Pacific Northwest. Summers are awesome with loads of outdoor adventures, and in the winter, I try my hand at skiing, though I'm still falling quite a bit!
I'm into competitive badminton, and love going for long runs and bike rides. I also practice Yoga and am a YTT 200 teacher. In my downtime, I enjoy listening to classical music (big fan of Rachmaninoff) and playing the piano. I'm reading a non-fiction book by Gregory Bateson and a fiction by Sayaka Murata.
