I'm an assistant professor in the Information School at the University of Washington. My research and teaching interests are in Human-Computer Interaction, especially in these areas:

  • Information management
  • Search
  • End-user programming
  • Methods for user-centered design.

Papers | Short CV — includes links to papers | Long CV

I'm especially interested in how designers build up information handling infrastructure to enfranchise stakeholders and to promote productivity and creativity. I call this perspective Design InformaticsFact Sheet.

Information Behaviors in Design

The aim of this work is to investigate the creation, capture, and use of information in design teams

Bibliography: A Lens on Information System Design

The aim of this work is to investigate how bibliography—as a metaphor and practice—can be used to conceptualize information system design
