As a college professor in Applied Aesthetics, Experience design and Research Design, I created educational programming and curriculum around problem centered topics that addressed the most pressing issues in the respective fields of my research expertise. Such topics included Aesthetics in an age of deficit spending, Experience based designs and the Four fundamental experiences (memory, authenticity, transformative and aesthetic), Antifragility as the new merger of existentialism and probability as well as humor in the age of Western decline.
