Joshua Hale

Joshua Hale is a graphic designer, educator, and contemporary artist from Texas, currently living in BC. Having professional and educational experience in both the design and studio art realms, he brings with him a unique interdisciplinary perspective. As a designer, he is experienced in the areas of branding and identity, typography, front-end web design, and UI/UX Design. He is also interested in creative thinking processes, creative problem solving techniques, and innovative design methodologies. This has led him to integrate various creative problem solving frameworks and strategies, such as lateral thinking, design thinking, and human-centered design practices, into his design and studio work, as well as into the classroom environment.  His most recent SSHRC-funded research is focused on exploring the ways that art, design, and knowledge mobilization might be combined and integrated within collaborative transdisciplinary research.
