Academic & Media Lecturing

Bridging the History of Science and Psychology (Harvard University) with Media Ecology, Critical Theory, and Sound Design (The New School) to investigate how communication technologies reshape human cognition and society.

Pedagogical Basis

B.A., Psychology & History of Science
Harvard University (2006)

M.A., Media Studies
The New School (2011)

TEFL & Generative AI Certified

My teaching is anchored in the premise that technologies are sensory and cognitive environments that reorganize human perception and institutional power. Drawing on Marshall McLuhan’s Toronto School of Media Ecology and the history of science, students analyze emerging technologies—from acoustic media to Large Language Models—as historical epistemological shifts.
