I'm a usability specialist investigating analysis and design of multi-user interaction. My doctoral work centered around using discourse analysis techniques to understand design requirements for groupware. I am currently employed helping to design a complex versioning/building/testing system.

In my spare time, I write science fiction; my novel Duplicate is available as an eBook, paperback, or hardcover. Yes, there's a fair amount of User Experience in it. ;)

My statements on these websites are not official statements from any employer of mine.
