Personal profile
I joined the University of Bristol as a Lecturer in Management in 2018. I earned a PhD from the University of Warwick in 2012 and was a Lecturer in Information Systems at Royal Holloway, University of London (2014-2018). I have almost 10 years’ research experience in ICT for healthcare including research on health information systems in Kenya and more recently telehealth and online health communities in the UK. The expected impact of my research is to guide academics, policy makers and practitioners in the formulation of IT policies and strategies to support healthcare integration and patient-centered care. My research features in leading conferences and journals such as Management Information Systems Quarterly and the Journal of the Association for Information Systems. I am Associate Editor of the Journal of the Association for Information Systems, serve as Senior Editor of Information Technology and People, and I have been a referee for a number of world leading and internationally excellent journals such as Management Information Systems Quarterly, the Journal of the Association for Information Systems, and the Information Systems Journal. I have organized and co-chaired tracks for internationally renowned conferences such as the Mediterranean Conference on Information Systems (MCIS) and the International Conference on Information Resources Management (Conf-IRM). I have served as Associate Editor for the European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS) and the Academy of Management. I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (UK).
