The Visiting Professor appointment in the Armstrong Institute for Interactive Media Studies Program I taught classes on Usability/User Experience and Digital Marketing. My goals going into the school year was to prepare my students to step out of the classroom and into digital marketing jobs, where they will be able to find success immediately, add positive contributions and effect change as thought leaders.
