Personal profile
Profile
My background is in product and interaction design with a master’s degree in Industrial design. I hold a PhD in HCI from the University of Oulu, Finland, on the design of visual materials for anticipated user experience evaluations. My current research focuses on the design of wearables and next-to-body technology for self- and shared management of individuals' health and wellbeing as well as on the understanding of user’s needs for and experiences with the designed technology.
