My main interest is in Design and Education and how both can complement each other. My research projects are focused on computer supported education that makes use of technology to reach out to different types of learners as well as disadvantaged learners. Further to that I have discvovered art making for myself, especially the development of sound objects. I am hoping that my major project for this course will be an sound object. In my spare time, I maintain my beloved motorcycle Xanthe (DR650). In return Xanthe is taking me to amazing places throughout Australia. While not riding the motorbike I meditate and practice throat and overtone singing.
