I am an Instructor at Dalhousie University. Previously I was post-doctorate fellow at Dalhousie University and worked on project that involved Dalhousie, UBC, and OCADU in Canada and SFCar in Brazil. We investigated designing natural user interfaces (NUIs) for a hospital in Brazil. Previously, I worked on two projects with Boeing related to using mobile devices in a hospital and manufacturing setting. I have also worked with the IWK. My primary research field is in Human Computer Interaction with a focus on understanding Web behaviour and issues with mobile devices.
