My biography
I am a Chartered Ergonomist with over 20 years' experience.
I apply a wide variety of human factors and human factors integration techniques and methodologies across all seven human factors areas: manpower, personnel, training, engineering, health hazards, safety and social and organisational. This makes my job highly interesting, challenges me to be creative and adaptable. I am always learning.
I specialise in human computer interaction (HCI), usability and user experience/user interface (UX/UI) design and evaluation - recently being applied to robotics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and autonomous systems.
Much of my career has been working on defence projects although I also work in the transport and nuclear sectors. I specialise in design, development and assessment of intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and cyber security systems, processes, and products. I was the author of the HCI Technical Guide associated with Defence Standard 00-251 "Human Factors Integration in Defence Systems".
