Raymond Fok

I am a final year Ph.D. candidate at the University of Washington (Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering). I am a member of the Lab for Human-AI Interaction, advised by Daniel Weld. My research blends principles from Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and techniques from Natural Language Processing (NLP), with a focus on developing intelligent, interactive systems for supporting and augmenting complex knowledge work. My recent work explores applications across scholarly communication and sensemaking, workplace productivity, and AI-assisted decision making.

Throughout my PhD, I’ve been fortunate to collaborate with researchers at AI2 (Semantic Scholar), Adobe Research, and Google Research. Prior to joining UW, I received my B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Michigan – Ann Arbor, where I worked on crowdsourcing and mixed-initiative systems.

I am on the job market for research/applied scientist and software development positions. Please see my academic CV or 1-page resume, and contact me at rayfok@cs.washington.edu!
