INTERACTIVE MEDIA AND GAME DEVELOPMENT PRACTICES APPLIED IN EXPERIENCE DESIGN FOR CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS
December 2021
I looked at three prominent concerns researchers have voiced as cultural institutions incorporate interactive and immersive media. Institutions can use common practices from the interactive media and video game industry to design experiences while keeping these concerns in mind.
Over time, these practices may help institutions design meaningful experiences for cultural institutions.
A JERSEY FOR HELMUTT:
A VIDEOGAME DESIGNED TO COMMUNICATE WITH AUDIENCES
October 2021
After developing an app with the Worcester Art Museum, I explained how other cultural institutions and designers can use this media to build intimate audience relationships.
I competed in ACM's Student Research Competition in the Special Interest Group on Design of Communication's 39th Annual Conference where I placed first with this research.
RECOMMENDATION REPORT ON IMPROVING CAMPUS AUDIO QUALITY
December 2019
Over the course of seven weeks, I worked with two other IMGD majors to research how WPI can improve campus audio resources. We conducted interviews, surveys, and secondary research to determine where WPI stands compared to other schools with similar degrees.
As the liaison to the IMGD department, I coordinated two professor interviews and facilitated the Game Audio I class survey.
THE SARCASTIC FRIEND WHO TOLD YOU SO: POE'S SUBTLE, YET WITTY WARNING- A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS
April 2019
In my Rhetorical Criticism class, I chose to analyze Edgar Allan Poe's short story, "Never Bet the Devil Your Head". The story of two friends, one of whom, Mr. Dammitt, has a bad habit of betting everything his does. He does not heed his friend's warning against this until it is too late.
This assignment made me look the artifact through different rhetorical theories. Using the individual theories, I was able to analyze and explain what Poe was conveying with his choice of rhetorical devices.

August 2016
