Back to 2014-speakers

Bio:
I have been writing software for many years, working on applications rang- ing from radars and air traffic control to video effects and Java-powered cash registers. After twenty years as a professional programmer my long-term interest in the human element in programming practice finally led to a career break for a psychology degree. Now I am a postgraduate researcher at Bournemouth University, where I also teach programming to first year undergraduates.

My research combines my computing experience and my psychology skills as I pursue my interest in the small-scale decisions programmers make on a daily basis and the effect these choices have on their peers.
