Raymond Fok

I am a Ph.D. candidate at the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington, 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 industry job market! Please feel free to reach out to discuss relevant opportunities for Research Scientist, Applied Scientist, or related roles.
