I'm a rehab engineer with special interest in AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication - communication techniques for people who have no natural speech and in many cases additional physical and/or learning disabilities). I am working at the University of Dundee but love working out-with the academic field. I have started a Lego Mindstorms Robotic Club at my local primary school and I am Public Engagement lead for Computing at the School of Science and Engineering.
