I’m Professor of Interaction Design and Co-Director of Open Lab and EPSRC Centre for Digital Citizens at Newcastle University, predominantly working in the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). I am also Co-Director of Open Lab's Doctoral Training Centre in Digital Civics.
My research addresses the significant design challenges that we face in managing identity in our everyday interactions with digital technologies and personal data.
