I am a Lecture in Computational Cognitive Science, working in the School of Psychology at UNSW.

My research focuses on 3 key interests; I am interested in how learning and expectation impacts upon attentional control, as I seek to understand how learning cultivates attentional idiosyncrasies. Second, I study the influence of extended practice on cognitive performance, with a view to understanding the relationship between expertise and knowledge generalisation. Last, I dabble in meta-science, seeking to quantify under what conditions our assumptions underlying statistical tests are borne out in experimental data, and the extent to which it matters.

I am passionate about equity in science and a cracking cup of tea.
