About
I am an experience designer, artist, and teacher. My work asks how technology shapes and is shaped by emotion, and how that question registers in the body and in the stories we tell. I work across visual and theatrical media, psychological research, and human-computer interaction, and much of the work is translating between them.
I was founding faculty at the Johnny Carson Center for Emerging Media Arts at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where I helped build a BFA program from the ground up. I teach as a Visiting Assistant Professor in the School of Information at Pratt Institute, and I mentor artists and entrepreneurs at NEW INC, the New Museum’s cultural incubator.
I've worked in design, production, and education on projects with HBO, Meow Wolf, The Public Theater, and La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club, and built brand and experiential work with Invisible North, Fake Love, The Mill, and Volvox Labs. I’ve shown my solo and collaborative work at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, The Carnegie Museum of Art, Epic Games, and the National Academy of Sciences. My peer reviewed research appears in ACM Designing Interactive Systems and the Journal of Technology in Behavioral Science. I hold an MFA from the Glasgow School of Art and an MS from Carnegie Mellon.
