Background
Design technology for motivating people with chronic conditions to live a healthy life (behavior change).
Participatory design with People with MS for a fatigue management app and Spinal Cord Injury for calory burn and condition-specific tracking.
Interpretation and integration of behavior change theories into designs for technology.
I am a Lecturer in Interaction Design interested in understanding & modelling behaviour as well as supporting people through the use of technology. To that end, I research & develop artefacts that are digital and/or physical and utilize AI or CI techniques and interaction design.
I build and work with social robotics, games and games technology, apps and art(efacts).
I am always keen to work in the intersection of Arts, Technology and Science exploring what novel design spaces can unfold.
