Biography

I am a research fellow at the University of Nottingham who specialises in ethical application of technologies.

Since starting my PhD at the University in 2018, I have been a member of the Mixed Reality Lab and have also worked as part of the Horizon Digital Economy Research Group and the Trustworthy Autonomous Systems Hub. My work has also allowed me to work across different disciplines beyond Computer Science including Human Geography and Medicine.

I completed my MSci at the University of Birmingham in Human Geography between 2011-2015, and a multidisciplinary PhD spanning computer science, geography, and museology at the University of Nottingham 2018-2022.

Teaching Summary

I have provided support or guest lectures for Mixed Reality Technologies (G54MRT), Communication and Collaboration technologies (COMP3010) and Advanced Research Methods and Ethics (COMP4022). I have also been an invited guest lecturer for the University of Tampere's Design from the Future module.

I am keen to continue expanding my teaching experience, particularly regarding feminist approaches, ethical technologies, and accessibility.

Current Research

My research is wide ranging and spans a number of disciplines, schools, and fields of interest. However, at the heart of my research is a passion for investigating power disparity, improving accessibility, and advocating for equality.

I am currently involved in a number of wide ranging projects that explore the ethics and accessibility of robotic technologies. Primarily, my current role explores the social, legal, and ethical considerations around unmanned traffic management. However, I am also involved in projects looking at robotics improving accessibility, experiences, and functionality in domestic, medical, and cultural/museum settings.

Past Research

My previous research has been focused around the concept of ethical adoption of technologies. This ranges from the collection and use of personal data, through to improving physical and mental accessibility of museums and their content.
