Bio
I am a fourth year PhD student at the School of Information

I am interested in two main research areas: (1) psychological processes
involved in people’s interaction with information systems, particularly
web-based information retrieval (IR) systems, and (2) consumer health
information seeking and the design of consumer health systems.
