She previously served as a part-time faculty member in the Art + Technology Department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC), where she attained her MFA, and as an adjunct professor in the Fashion Design program at the Illinois Institute of Art – Chicago (ILIC). Her interdisciplinary background mixes art and technology, interface design, tangible computing, 3D, architecture and fiber and material studies. She is always looking at new technology, whether software or hardware, to learn, explore and subvert. The interdisciplinary approach she takes to her creative practice and pedagogy is part of the unique skill set that she brings to the Fashion School. Banner image: Michael D.
