Biography

I am a Senior Lecturer in Software Engineering at Glasgow University, with a PhD in digital health technology from the University of Central Lancashire, an MSc in Software Development from Huddersfield University and a BA from Bristol University.

As an empirical software engineering researcher I focus on agility, sustainability, process improvement, and industry practice. I am a founder member of the Agile Research Network.

Research interests

My research interest is in empirical software engineering. I investigate processes and practices, agile software development, sustainability practices, agile transformation, software project management, and software engineering education. My work is human-centred, socio-technical, and often qualitative. It also encompasses the social and ethical impacts of digital technology development and use.
