Institute of Play is a design-based non-profit in New York City known for the design of learning experiences that are both engaging and empowering. The Institute’s research and design work has been widely featured as an innovative and accessible approach to transforming education through games, design, and play.

I was the founding Executive Director (2007-2013) and continue to serve on the Board. During my tenure I built an interdisciplinary team of designers, strategists, and learning practitioners committed to the design of alternative learning futures.
