Life

Bell was born in Sydney, the daughter of the Australian anthropologist Diane Bell , and grew up in Melbourne , Canberra and the indigenous towns and villages of the Northern Territory . In 1990 she graduated from Bryn Mawr College with a degree in anthropology . In 1993 she completed her master's degree at Stanford University , where she received her PhD in anthropology in 1998. Her dissertation dealt with the Carlisle Indian Industrial School , which gave Indians an education in the 19th and early 20th centuries. From 1996 to 1998 Bell taught Anthropology and Native American Studies at Stanford University.

In 1998 she was recruited by the semiconductor manufacturer Intel. It should help strengthen the social science competence of the company's research and development laboratories. She worked as a cultural anthropologist at the Hillsboro, Oregon office, studying how different cultures around the world use technology.

In 2005 she founded Intel's first user experience company as part of Intel's Digital Home Group. She returned to research and development in 2010 when Intel made her director of the User Experience research group. Her team worked on questions about big data , transport concepts and future-oriented image technologies. Due to the success of her working group, Bell became Vice President in 2014 and Senior Scientist in 2016.

In 2010 Bell was named one of the 25 most important women in the technology sector by AlwaysOn and in 2009 was one of the 100 most creative people for Fast Company. In 2012, Bell was inducted into the Hall of Fame for Women In Technology International , and in 2013 she was a Women of Vision in Leadership at the Anita Borg Institute. In 2014 she was part of Elle magazine's list of the most influential women in technology and part of an exhibition at the London Design Museum that featured 25 women from around the world.

Her first book, Divining a Digital Future: Mess and Mythology in Ubiquitous Computing , which she wrote with Paul Dourish in 2011 , describes the social and cultural aspects of the ubiquity of computational information processing .

Bell was Thinker in Residence for South Australia from 2008 to 2010 , a now discontinued program that aims to bring Australian society to an exchange with global leaders. She helped the Australian government develop a strategy for a national broadband initiative. Bell led the ethnographic research and developed innovative research approaches to identify obstacles surrounding the expansion of broadband Internet access .

In early 2017, Bell became a professor at the Australian National University College of Engineering and Computer Science, where her main focus is on how to combine data science with design and ethnography in order to find new approaches in engineering . She will leave Intel as Vice President, but will remain a Senior Fellow.
