I am committed to lifelong learning through intellectual, creative and
personal growth—always striving to inspire the next generation of creatives.
I am a graduate of the College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning (DAAP) at University of Cincinnati, with a Master of Design (MDes) degree from the School of Design. While at UC, I chaired the university-wide faculty Innovation Council, coordinated a comprehensive faculty innovation workgroup initiative and co-instructed multiple sections of a multidisciplinary undergraduate course, offered through the University Honors Program. As an undergraduate, I studied design and communication at Bowling Green State University where I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Graphic Design. I have been a member of adjunct faculty with the College of Creative Arts at Miami University, University of Cincinnati Honors Program, UC Digital Media Collaborative and have taught packaging design at University of Louisville. In addition to the courses I’ve taught, I have frequently supported other courses as a guest lecturer.
