I am an HCI researcher and educator at Action Lab, Monash University, Australia, under the mentorship of Prof. Patrick Olivier. I am also affiliated with Embodied Visualisation Group where I was mentored by Prof. Tim Dwyer. Before re-joining Monash, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Wearable Computer Lab, University of South Australia, where I was mentored by Emeritus Prof. Bruce Thomas, A/Prof Ross Smith, and Dr. Andrew Cunningham. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Monash University under the mentorship of A/Prof. Bernhard Jenny, Dr. Barrett Ens, Dr. Maxime Cordeil, and Prof. Tobias Czauderna.
