My work involves Wayfinding i.e. the act of how we find our way between places. I am interested in the sociology of wayfinding, heritage interpretation in wayfinding practice and how wayfinding can be used in tourism spaces such as in urban centres, for sustainability, on bay trails, museums and airports.
