I am a social scientist of human-computer interaction, exploring distributed team collaboration and AI workflows at Microsoft Research. I work in Brisbane, Australia, reporting to the Cambridge UK Lab.
I am currently part of the People-Centric AI team, which develops knowledge, model capabilities, and experiences that enable human agency and skill, support creativity and collaboration, and ensure equitable representation and participation. I previously co-lead the Tools for Thought project and lead the Intentional Meetings project.
I have been a member of a multiple global prize-winning Hackathon teams at Microsoft (A Grand Prize winning project, five global category First Place projects, and one global category Second Place project in the annual Microsoft Hackathon). One of these Hackathon projects is on the Garage Wall of Fame: Mobile Sharing and Companion Experiences for Microsoft Teams Meetings. This was the first prize winning project that I was on, and it became a feature in Microsoft Teams.
I have been a PC member of CHI and CSCW many times and I review for many major HCI, communication, and technology journals and conferences.
