I'm a Senior Lecturer in the School of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, Australia.

If you're looking for a 4th-year thesis project, send email.

I have worked in the application of computing technology to educational needs e.g. course management (WebCMS), online role-play (ORE), curriculum mapping (Cmap), academic proposals (AIMS), degree planning, peer assessment, etc.

If you want to know when I'm likely to be available, the following might help:
