I’m a member of the Computational Foundry at Swansea University. My current research focuses primarily on devices and interactions designed with and for emergent users – people in rural or developing regions where connectivity and technology availability are often low.

My research has been funded by RAi Amplify, and EPSRC UnMute,Rethinking public technology, PV interfaces, Breaking the glass, Reshaping the expected future, Scaling the rural enterprise, Community-generated media for the next billion and Multimodal, negotiated interaction in mobile scenarios.

I lead the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research group – the FIT Lab, and am a member of the management team for the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Enhancing Human Interactions and Collaborations with Data and Intelligence Driven Systems. I am the REF impact lead for the Computer Science department (UoA 11), and a previous MASI Research Entrepreneur. I currently teach on the modules Introduction to Human-Computer Interaction (CS-200) and Software Engineering Project Management (CSC301).

I maintain a collection of resources and a set of open-source tools that Swansea University staff and students may find useful.
