As a PhD Student in the Wearable Systems Lab in Aalto University I am designing and developing novel haptic and multi-sensory experiences in my doctoral research. Current research questions address:

︎ How can we use experiential, embodied knowledge for the design of positive user experiences with wearable and multi-sensory technologies?
︎ What are some experiential qualities of temperatures beyond hot and cold? 
︎ How can wearable, temperature experiences help to empathise with other non-human organisms such as microbes?

Also, I am interested in advancing futures thinking methods to inspire the imagination of inclusive and empathic futures (such as the Future Ripples workshop method).



︎ Soma Futures - how can we use embodied and sensory knowledge to faciliate the imagination and anticipation of futures?
