Teaching Philosophy
My teaching approach fuses spatial thinking, narrative design, and interdisciplinary exploration. I create learning environments where architecture, media arts, and cultural studies converge, challenging students to think beyond traditional boundaries. Through hands-on projects, I encourage critical inquiry and the application of theory to real-world challenges. By integrating diverse fields like humanities, narrative inquiry, and experience design, I foster a holistic perspective on complex problems. I guide students towards ideas that are emergent, thoughtful, and just a bit mischievous. After all, envisioning sustainable, collective worlds should be taken seriously lightly, and lightly seriously.
