Meet Diane
I'm a Human-Centered Design and Development major minoring in Art History, with a certificate in Museum Studies from Penn State University.
I care a lot about introspection and collective healing, and bring an expansive and accessibility-driven perspective to the professional spaces I occupy.​​
In addition to my digital creative practice, I also have traditional roots in painting and 3D visual mediums.
I am deeply invested in transforming cultural institutions through conventional and immersive technologies to create meaningful digital experiences that positively imprint on my audience.
​
I'm personable and community-driven, often finding myself in leadership and managerial positions in my academic and professional career.
