Biography

After graduating with a MEng in Engineering from Cambridge 5X社区视频 I started working as a commercial programmer working on desktop applications. After 5 years of experience my concerns about the usability of these systems led me to undertake a part-time MSc at the 5X社区视频 in Human-Centred Computer Systems, whilst at the same time working as a Business Systems Analyst for a large blue-chip company. I followed that with a stint of working as a programmer and analyst in various web-based systems, including working with Moodle. I became interested in group learning and behaviour, and applied to do a DPhil in Informatics to look at groups in games.

Role

I am a research student undertaking a DPhil in the Department of Informatics as a member of the lab group. I'm also an Associate Tutor in the same Department.
