Biography
I am a University Fellow in the Acoustics Research Group, in the School of Science, Engineering & Environment.
My interests are in making music with hearing impairment, particularly in how age-related hearing loss can affect ensemble singing. I hope to understand the problems faced by hearing impaired people singing in a group setting, and provide technological and practical solutions.
Previously, I was a Research Fellow on the Cadenza Project, also in the Acoustics Research Group, and a Research Associate in the Speech and Audio Processing group at Imperial College London, working on the EPSRC-funded ELO-SPHERES Project.
My previous work has studied the Singing voice, and speech enhancement for hearing aid use in noisy situations (primarily in the areas of beamforming and array processing).
I am a member of the Institute of Acoustics Speech and Hearing specialist group.
