Calliope recently relocated from San Francisco to Toronto in 2011, where she is now studying full-time in the Interdisciplinary Master’s of Art, Media and Design at the Ontario College of Art and Design University. She is also currently a research assistant in the Social Body Lab.

In San Francisco, her clients over the last four years have included a range of non-profits and creatives, most notably Burning Man. Originally from Vancouver, where she holds a BFA from UBC (photography and printmaking) and a BDes (interaction and typography) from Emily Carr, she brings with her an unceasing curiosity and desire for learning. Combined with her broad experiences in publishing, project management, print and digital design, her intent with her studies at OCAD is to explore current and possible connections between design and natural sciences, to further our interactions with the natural world.
