I’m interested in photography both as a photographer and as a researcher.  In my research I’m motivated by the immense popularity of personal photography, the value that people place on photos, and the proliferation of photos in social media.  Facebook is now the biggest photo site, adding 3 billion images each month.

I’m also interested in how new technology is allowing us to use photography for new purposes. As a researcher in HCI and the School of Information, I’m fascinated by the emerging uses of digital, networked images.

Finally, as photographer, I’m developing my hands-on skills at making images, and combining them with audio narratives.
