The Art InstitutesProfessor of Graphic Design
Jan. 2013 - Sep. 2023San Antonio, Texas AreaIn this position, I have been able to teach a breadth and depth of courses and provide consultation for new program development. Like many educators, I quickly changed from teaching in-person to virtual learning in a compressed timeframe. It was important to me that my classes retained opportunities for students to practice their professional communication and spontaneous ideation, so I designed online courses where these vital elements were retained from the traditional classroom experience. To ensure I provided the most engaging and accessible content, I completed 100+ hours of training for teachers in online environments. Courses Taught Include: Design Fundamentals, Digital Illustration, Layout Design, Publication Design, Image Manipulation in Photoshop, Rapid Visualization, Corporate Identity, Interface Design, Portfolio Presentation for Technical Drawing, Art Direction, Senior Project, Perspective Drawing, Graphic Design Portfolio, Information Design
