Digital Well-Being Specialist

Leigh-Chantelle is a technology adoption specialist and behavioural researcher with expertise spanning cyberpsychology, digital wellness, and sociotechnical systems. She applies interdisciplinary approaches combining psychology and information technology to understand how people interact with emerging technologies in real-world contexts.

Her PhD research has been published in leading transportation journals, contributing to the development of evidence-based policy for Australia’s autonomous and electric vehicle future. Previously, her Honours research on social robots was published in leading education journals (1, 2), contributing to evidence-based knowledge in early childhood education around human-robot interaction.

As a consultant and speaker, Leigh-Chantelle works with industry, government, and academic organisations to translate research insights into practical strategies for technology implementation and user adoption. Her work addresses the human factors that determine whether new technologies succeed or fail in diverse communities, with particular expertise in rural-urban technology divides and the psychology of early adopters.

Beyond her research expertise, Leigh-Chantelle is an entrepreneur and educator. She founded Daily PhD, a startup that supports PhD candidates and universities in overcoming research obstacles and maintaining progress toward degree completion. Through this venture, she combines her understanding of academic challenges with practical solutions for higher education success.

Leigh-Chantelle serves on the policy sub-committee of the National Future Transport Summit through the Centre for Connected and Automated Transport (CCAT) and the policy working group of the Australian Electric Vehicle Association (AEVA). She has owned her ex-demo 2021 Nissan LEAF electric vehicle since June 2022 and is an active member of the AEVA Queensland branch.
