On this episode, we talk with Cynthia Lawson Jaramillo, Dean of the School of Design Strategies, Associate Dean at Parsons School of Design, and the Conference Co-Chair of the Digitally Engaged Learning (DEL) Conference. Cynthia talks of being an artist who teaches design, and finding her way to the discipline through a passion of Art, a background in Electrical Engineering, and the worldview of growing up as a third culture kid. Cynthia discusses the practice and considerations of Integrated Design, including politicizing acts of helping, removing assumptions that you have what it takes to make someone else’s life better, and the importance of how we each represent history when walking into any given situation.
