Assistant Professor & Department Chair
Jun, 2012 - Dec, 2017New England Institute of Art
Soon after being asked to join the faculty of the continuing education department, I was also hired as a consultant to help rewrite the graphic design curriculum to better reflect what was current in the field. In 2010, I began teaching in the undergraduate degree program. In 2012, I was offered a full-time assignment. After being selected as chair, I worked with faculty and the curriculum committee to update the print-design focus to include web design and mobile development. This substantive change effort was approved by NEASC and reflected in the program’s new name, graphic & web design.
