Art Director

Rebecca Grabman holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Bennington College, where the school’s self- directed learning model allowed her to take a broad range of classes organized around the theme of “interactive storytelling”. Her focus was in traditional and digital art mediums, with a particular interest language structures.

She is passionate about creating tools and experiences that encourage communication, conversation and collaboration, both for educational and entertainment purposes. After completion of CMU’s Master of Entertainment Technology program, she hopes to find a role in which she can use her skills in tactile experience augmentation to contribute to meaningful and immersive environments.

She was recently an artist/designer for the Give Kids the World “Starscape” project and co-Head TA for the spring Building Virtual Worlds class. This past summer she had a fabulous time interning with the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh’s new MakeShop, facilitating and designing programming to introduce kids to the concepts, culture and tools of the Maker ethos.
