Among her recent projects, she collaborated with Torry Bend (Theater Studies) on “The Paper Hat Game”, a toy theater performance that integrated digital visuals with live puppetry; created motion graphics for “In my Mind”, a documentary directed by Gary Hawkins, and collaborated on “The letters project”, an installation featuring poetry, letterforms, prints and animation highlighting the potential of digital media in translating the written word.
