ABOUT ME

Before becoming a therapist, I worked professionally within the creative practices of arts and design for many years. During some of that time, I was a Public Policy Fellow at the United States National Academy of Sciences in Washington D.C., where I worked on policy related to valuation and support of creative practices. I was also a visiting scholar at the United States Library of Congress in Washington D.C., and I am the co-founder of the Cultural Information Lab at Pratt Institute. I was fortunate to have worked at General Electric (GE) Research and Development on human-centered design. My designs have won two awards.

Since becoming a therapist, I was named a Teacher of the Year at New York University (NYU) where I have taught since 2003 and was a co-author of the evaluation criteria for the Buckminster Fuller Challenge which was named “socially responsible designs highest award” by Metropolis Magazine. I was also the creator of the Buckminster Fuller Challenge Fellowship Program for young socially responsible designers.

I have held positions on the Board of Directors of Pratt Institute, the Buckminster Fuller Institute, and the C.G Jung Foundation.

As a service to our country, I have evaluated 10’s millions of dollars in (non-partisan) grant applications for the United States Government’s IMLS.
