Jenny joined Mobile Bristol as
a Research assistant with the University of Bristol in April
2003.
Her role is to contribute to the Experience and Lifestyles
Research program through the planning, collection and analysis
of data collected from “users”. To date, a large focus
of her work has been on the Schminky project (carrying out usability
testing, helping in the design of the user interface and observing
and questioning people playing Schminky).
She is currently working on a Lifestyles research
project looking at stresses in the lives of working parents.
Jenny’s background is in Applied Psychology,
having worked and studied in a diversity of areas from mental health
and criminology to her current focus in Human-Computer Interaction
and User Studies. She carried out an internship for her Masters
(in the Design and Evaluation of Advanced Interactive Systems)
at Xerox Research Centre Europe and subsequently joined Hewlett-Packard
Labs in March 2002 as a User Researcher. From there she went on
to join the Mobile Bristol Team.
Jenny enjoys motor-biking, walking and camping
and can sometimes be seen around Bristol enjoying a pint or two
of cider.
