Digital Health

Based in the Human-Computer Interaction group, I collaborate with health researchers and practioners to design and evaluate interventions for a range of physical and psychosocial health conditions.

Emotion and its Regulation

I study how people use technology to manage their emotions, informed by psychology research on emotion regulation as well as research on the social and cultural influence of pharmaceutical tools.

Human-Computer Interaction

I employ user-centred design and evaluation techniques to support projects ranging from Indigenous-led technology to climate change mitigation.

Virtual Worlds

My PhD examined how people communicate and collaborate in online virtual worlds.
