My range of research interests are rooted in a belief that a computer is a tool to support scientific research, fuel business and enrich social fulfillment, gaming, interaction and art. Because of this, I have focused on 3D interaction, bringing the computer into the human world. More recently, this has been targeting the problems of development for 3D interaction. Future work will continue these themes, seeking collaborations to target real-world problems with 3D interaction. I strive for creativity, an understanding of theory to guide practical exploration, solid methodology for experimentation and true collaboration with domain experts to solve real problems.
