I am a Lord Kelvin Adam Smith Fellow at the Centre for the Study of Perceptual Experience within the University of Glasgow. My work focusses on the research questions within philosophy, and beyond, concerning the new Immersive Technologies of Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR). 

My background is in philosophy - particularly the philosophical issues around causation - and I earned my PhD jointly from the University of Glasgow and Macquarie University. I held postdoctoral research posts in Glasgow, and Hamburg, and a teaching post in Glasgow, before my appointment to the LKAS scheme in September 2017.

I am interested in the philosophical questions that arise from new Immersive Technologies and I am also interested in supporting colleagues in realising their research ambitions related to this technology and I draw on my extensive experience working for the Soluis group to do that.

In addition to my VR/AR work, I continue to work on issues in the philosophy of causation, and on the potential benefit that philosophy can bring to safety engineering.
