I am a media researcher with an engineering background working at the interface between people, stories, media and technology. My work spans issues from access services, speech audibility, video quality to human perception and most recently the structure of media content and its relationship with the audience. My last majour pieces of work at BBC R&D by examined the role of the audience in media and the issue of media personalisation, both of which were poorly studied.

 

Since taking voluntary redundancy in March 2024 I have developed a subtitle quality measurement project with the support of the University of Dundee.
