Mitsuka Kiyohara
Toronto, ON
Hey there! My name is Mitsuka, but you can also call me Mitzy. Originally from the SF Bay Area, I'm a fourth-year undergraduate researcher at the University of Toronto, where I’m fortunate to be advised by Prof. Khai N. Truong (University of Toronto) and Prof. Julie Kientz (University of Washington).
I’m fascinated by how we learn and connect through technology, and how those interactions shape who we become. I hope to transform these insights into human-centered technologies that can make the world a slightly better place, especially in domains like education and well-being.
Outside of research, I love watching Formula 1, listening to XG, and imagining a future where humans and AI can thrive together.
