I work in the Institute for Language, Cognition and Computation within the School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh. My research focus is on using technology to investigate, understand and facilitate human communication. My work uses natural language interaction to support learning (tutorial dialogue systems), to improve wellbeing (health informatics and digital personhood), and to influence behaviour change (domestic energy feedback). Earlier in my career I spent time in industry developing and implementing novel classification algorithms for customer data analytics. I also have extensive experience in public engagement.
