I specialise in looking at the socio-digital wiring, innovations, gaps, silences and inequalities that are part of today's information systems, digital data, and expert knowledge circulations. This means I look at power, practice and activities, using different frameworks and theories.

I focus on information systems, organisation studies, impact evaluation, the use of technologies and knowledge management for development (ICT4D and KM4D respectively), the role of non-government organisations (NGOs) and the digital injunctions that entrench development 2.0 global networks. 

I've published at top tier journals and conferences such as the Information Systems Journal (ISJ), Organisation Studies (OS), the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE), and the European Group for Organisation Studies Conference (EGOS). 

(Somehow) I completed a PhD at the UK Research Council funded HighWire Centre for Doctoral Training at Lancaster University in 2019. My thesis looked at how data, knowledge, power, politics and participation are  entangled in globally development impact evaluations,. This creates a range of hidden impacts I termed the "impact iceberg". 

I have over 20 years’ experience in the development sector and in the education sector. I have worked with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the British Council, and universities in the UK, Australia, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates. I also also collaborated with non-government and not-for-profit organisations who work in various countries, including Laos, Thailand, UK, Nigeria, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, and Uganda. 

In the 2000s, I managed enterprise technology projects and services for e-learning and digital communications at the United Arab Emirates University (UAEU). More recently, I researched participatory governance and helped set up a knowledge platform for Australian aid programs to Papua New Guinea, with the Institute for Human Security and Social Change (IHSSC) at La Trobe University. 

In late 2019, I joined the Organisation Studies and Human Resources Management Group (OSHRM), at the University of Essex Business School in the UK, as a lecturer in organisation studies.
