(2023-Present)
Emily Carr University of Art + Design
Approach in the Classroom
My work in the classroom explores the intersection of embodied learning and industrial design. As an instructor, I teach undergraduate studio and critical studies courses on industrial design project development, freehand drawing and drafting methods, and ergonomics—focusing on how tactile engagement enhances the learning process.
My Teaching Journey
I have always advocated for education and learning, instilled by deep family values on education growing up. I started my design teaching journey as a Teaching Fellow at Emily Carr in 2023. Following this, I became a Sessional Instructor after graduating from my Master’s in 2024 and continue to foster an engaging and memorable learning classroom and studio environment.
