I study how design knowledge, ethics, and human-computer interaction practice shape the technologies people encounter every day.
My work focuses on dark patterns and manipulative design, UX practice and competence, design education, and the translation of HCI research into legal, regulatory, and public-interest contexts.
Featured Work
Studio Properties
Studio Properties is a field guide to design education and studio pedagogy. The book examines the material, social, cultural, and institutional conditions that shape how design learning happens.
Universal Methods of Ethical Design
Universal Methods of Ethical Design provides an easy reference to a wide range of principles, methods, conceptual frameworks, and more.
Dark Patterns & Manipulative Design
I research deceptive, coercive, and manipulative design practices across digital interfaces and systems. This work includes taxonomies and ontologies of dark patterns, analysis of consent and privacy interfaces, and advocacy for more ethical forms of interaction design.
