A brief introduction

I am a post-doc fellow at the School of Management at the University of Bath. I am funded by the EPSRC project pvnets. Generally, my research is motivated by a desire to undestand the nature of privacy. I am seeking to answer what privacy means from a layperson’s perspective and to identify how subjective feelings drive the privacy regulation process.

Before joining the University of Bath in September of 2008, I was a PhD student at Imperial College in London. My research aimed at resolving unintentional and infrequent online offences with the design of emotional mechanisms. More information about my past and current research can be found under overview and publications pages.

Prior to the PhD, I worked for several years as an interactive designer and user-centered consultant in the Chicago area. In 2004, I started my own company Lumina Interactive. I have a BFA in Interactive Media/Photography (1999) and an MSc in Human Computer Interaction (2003).
