Biography
I have been at Cardiff since 2002, and have been involved in teaching all levels of Undergraduate Taught (UGT) and Postgraduate Taught (PGT) programmes.
I have a particular interest in teaching and researching multi-disciplinary subjects that span Computer Science, Informatics, Information Systems and Business domains. Throughout my career, I have proposed, designed, developed and delivered a variety of modules, which covered different areas, from ’typical’ technology-oriented topics, such as system design and development; to business-oriented and softer subjects, developing the students’ broader knowledge of computing industry and research, as well as transferable and professional skills. I have experience in mentoring new members of staff and teaching assistants, involved in delivering the modules I am responsible for.
My teaching expertise also extends to supervision and moderation of undergraduate and posgraduate dissertations.
In a wider context, I am an active contributor to a number of School-wide and University-wide groups and committees, responsible for development and review of learning and teaching policies, strategic and operational aspects, and curriculum.
