Gabe Tippery

Designer, Teacher, Researcher

Columbus, OH, USA
After earning his Bachelor of Science in Interior Space Design from The Ohio State University (OSU) in 2009, Gabe is currently, until August 2012, a Graduate Teaching Associate and MFA Candidate in The OSU - Department of Design. Gabe has been a guest lecturer and studio critic numerous times, both at Ohio State and the Columbus College of Art & Design. His current research interests center around the intersection of Web 2.0 and the Design Classroom, and he would love nothing more than to have discussions about how we as educators can transform the institutions where we teach design.

In addition to his academic and design related endeavors, Gabe is also a Certified Recording Engineer, avid cycling advocate, musician, and a committed partner and father. He is a firm proponent for sensible copyright law and believes that bio statements should always be written in third person.
