I am a creative, an artist, a designer, and a design educator. Currently I am an Assistant Professor of Art and Graphic Design at the University of Central Arkansas (UCA), creator and host of the DESIGN DEDUX™ Podcast, and founder of Twist Creative Studio ™ and creative director with Dave Creek Media. I have earned my MFA in Design from Savannah College of Art and Design , an MS in Marketing, Communication, and Information Technology from Rochester Institute of Technology, and I have taught a variety of design curriculum ranging from branding and advertising to typography as well as packaging to graphic design history. My work advocates the application of humanistic experience and typographic form and visual communication with an ideology that design can exist and communicate in multi-dimensionalities signifying a ‘user-experience’ that is articulated, understood, sensed, and embodied. Beyond my academic career I have accrued more than twenty-five years as a professional designer with design experience encompassing freelance design, public relations, advertising, marketing, publications design, video production, and more.

Support the show

Since its inception in 2019, Design Education Talks podcast has served as a dynamic platform for the exchange of insights and ideas within the realm of art and design education. This initiative sprang from a culmination of nearly a decade of extensive research conducted by Lefteris Heretakis. His rich background, intertwining academia, industry, and student engagement, laid the foundation for a podcast that goes beyond the conventional boundaries of educational discourse.
