Senior🎓
Top SchoolBhawana Chhaglani is a PhD candidate and research assistant at UMass Amherst specializing in privacy-aware ubiquitous sensing with eight years of research and engineering experience across academia and industry. Her thesis advances privacy-preserving audio and passive WiFi sensing for healthier indoor environments, building systems like FlowSense, AeroSense, FeatureSense and the ongoing CrowdSense project. She has interned at industry leaders including Meta, Dolby, Samsung Research America, and Nokia Bell Labs, applying audio and wearable sensing to problems from ventilation monitoring to hearable-based posture detection. Comfortable spanning ML, embedded sensing, and systems, she has published and deployed deep-learning and acoustic solutions (e.g., ear-worn cough detection) that bridge bench research and real-world instrumentation. Colleagues note her knack for turning noisy, privacy-sensitive signals into actionable indoor-health metrics—a theme that ties together her diverse internships and interdisciplinary collaborations.
