Engaged high school students with an introduction to the history and practice of commercial interior design - expanding their understanding of interior design, its business practices, career specializations, and educational requirements as well as providing hands-on design learning. In combination with the practical learning sessions, I facilitated lectures about the interior design process, history, sustainability, ergonomics, and materials and furnishings all with a through-line of addressing issues of design equity and sustainability. I also helped students develop communication and presentation skills and exposure to diverse segments of the industry.
