My main research and professional interests are in Human-Computer Interaction, Computer Education and Design Thinking, where I exploring people’s ideas and how we could have a better digital design to have a better life. My focus is on enabling users to overcome obstacles to effective decision-making and participation through the design of technologies. I believe that proper research should be data-driven and user-centric. It is an iterative process requiring collaboration between multiple teams.
