Research interests

I am interested in understanding how people use environmental data and improving user experience – through the use of storytelling and other creative non-traditional methods.

I am also interested in assessing and sharing the impact that scientific data archives and computing facilities have upon research outputs.

These areas are important for us to understand because there is no point providing services or data if they are not fit for purpose or if people do not know about the benefits of using them.
