    Postdoctoral Fellow

    University of Victoria

    During my postdoc in the CHISEL Group I conceived, lead, conducted, and documented studies on how software developers collaborate, many of them qualitative. I conducted interviews, surveyed developers, and used qualitative analysis methods such as Grounded Theory to make sense of the data I had collected. I also contributed to grant applications by writing, organizing and leading meetings, and research. I was supervised my Prof. Margaret-Anne Storey and Prof. Daniel German.
