Research Interests

My research focuses on interactive systems, and especially (a) development methods for interfaces and their documentation and (b) models of conversation. The underlying question common to these areas is "What does it mean to interact?" With this knowledge, developers could build systems that are more intuitive, more useful, and safer, in domains ranging from consumer kiosks to modern aircraft.
