General Information
Details
I am both a researcher and a designer with interests in both understanding and creating and facilitating others to be creative in collaboration. I have worked as a fashion designer, educator, and research scientist exploring the intersections of disciplines and cultures. As a designer my curiosity lies in the usability of technology, placing the human experience at the heart of the design process. As a researcher I study the human factors, preferences, and technical reasons for why some devices or methods of interaction function better than others.
I have been teaching courses at the college level for over 15 years instructing over 2600 students in over 30 courses at the Georgia Institute of Technology, while also teaching fashion design and textiles at Savannah College of Art and Design from 2008 to 2012. I have learned to teach both design and engineering students using a variety of methods. Early in my teaching career I focused on studio instruction, working with students to build skills in making, drawing, and presentation. Today I teach mostly lecture courses, but still assess the student’s learning mainly through group project work.
