Steven C. Seow joined Microsoft Corporation as a Usability Engineer after completing his Master’s Degree and Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology at Brown University with a research focus on human timing. Prior to Brown, the Singapore native completed his Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Forensic Psychology at John Jay College of Criminal Justice with a thesis examining the distortion of time perception in ‘earwitnesses’. While completing his doctorate, he published his first theoretical paper in the Human-Computer Interaction Journal that compares two information theoretic models of human performance. Steve is currently a user researcher with the Surface Computing at Microsoft, and frequently confers with other colleagues across the company to talk about time and timing issues. Coupled with his scholarly interest in psychology is his passion for computer technology. On his spare time, Steve enjoys tinkering with computer hardware, dabbling with programming languages, and building websites. He lives in Maple Valley, WA, with his wife and son.
