Her work was showcased this past summer at the National Portrait Gallery at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n

Anastasia Salter<\/strong>
\n Salter’s work focuses on the impact of emerging platforms on the experience and authorship of stories. In addition to presenting her work internationally, she has also helped design an alternative reality game for an art history class and a U.S.-Russia cultural exchange game.<\/p>\n

Eileen Smith<\/strong>
\n Smith’s research out of her E2i Creative Studio focuses on enhancing human performance over a lifetime. Her current research portfolio is at $3 million and aims to help train people in everything from teaching people to operate oil rig equipment to maintenance therapy for people with dementia.<\/p>\n

Stephanie Vie<\/strong>
\n Vie is an internationally known scholar for her work in digital rhetoric. She is a leader in the area of social media and digital activism. Her expertise has been featured in publications such as Research Gate News and The Chronicle of Higher Education.<\/p>\n
