I advise students concentrating on interactive design in the Digital Media MPS program at Northeastern University. Students’ final projects begin with research and a proposal on a topic of interest that I approve or help them revise. In addition to helping students frame the project I provide guidance and support throughout. I help students adapt when new information or circumstances require a shift in focus, deliverables or schedule, and assess their work against rubrics in their proposal. I’ve advised over 35 students to date, including the following:
