I am a lecturer in HCI in . My work centres on rural informatics and Rural HCI.

I contribute to the based in Open Lab researching the impacts of mis- and disinformation, and lead a rural informatics research agenda. 

My research is at the cross-section of social and political theory and sociodigital design and examines the role of civil society and other forms of active citizenship in shaping their communities.

I have previously been a research associate working within DERC (Digital Economy Research Centre) and . I have also worked as an Innovation Fellow as part of the .

My work involves taking a participatory action research approach to collaboration with a range of community organisations, carrying out ethnographic fieldwork and designing, deploying, and evaluating novel consultation technologies and sociodigital interventions, concentrating on the role of stakeholders, the meaningfulness and validity of data as part of campaigning, consulting, and everyday life, and the impacts of digital innovation on marginalised communities.

My research, published in leading HCI conferences, has investigated the role of the researcher, and stakeholder power and influence during technology deployments related to local decision-making, explored the interplay between data, knowledge, and evidence in local-level policymaking, on the creation of spaces for civic discourse, and on the way citizen-led organisations can create resources for democratic action through configuring participation during local consultation.

Current areas of active research are Rural Informatics & Online Disinformation.

As well as serving as stage 3 co-ordinator, I am the subject lead for HCI theme for student dissertations for CSC8499 Project and Dissertation for MSc in Advanced Computer Science, CSC8099 Project and Dissertation for MSc in Computer Science, and CSC3094 Major Project and Dissertation in Computer Science.

I am Lecturer on:

CSC3731 Human-Computer Interaction: Interaction design, and

CSC8601 Systems & Societies (MSc Human-Computer Interaction) and,

module leader for CSC8022 Human-Computer Interaction

I supervise final projects in HCI theme for:
