Researcher biography

My research straddles journalism and interaction design and aims to show how one can help the other innovate. I teach practice-led courses, including Journalism Design, in which students used design methods to envisage the future of journalism. My PhD project, the NewsCube, won an industry grant for journalism innovation.
