Her clear joy in public speaking and mild likeability led to a position with Social Prosperity Wood Buffalo (SPWB), a community-based project in Fort McMurray that sought to support a culture of social innovation. This directly led to her current position as Assistant Professor of Social Innovation in the Bissett School of Business. She has not abandoned her historical roots however, as she is currently delivering a first - a history of/and social innovation course, where she has already subjected serious business students to a frivolous discussion of resilience and the French Revolution. Upcoming topics include the Dutch East India Company, the Canada Health Act, Intelligence Testing, and (sigh) that new flash-in-the-pan, the Internet. Katharine is currently helming/coordination the Apaat tsi kani takiiks, a three-year Indigenization initiative that builds on the Suncor Aboriginal Business Education Pilot Program here at Bissett. That is, helming it until the incredibly impressive and driven Bissett Aboriginal students mutiny and take over the ship. She can't wait to live in the Canada they are going to (re)build. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1507134908776-2MFLLWRI1797GEJHQOPB/Patrick_Moskwa.jpg Who's Involved Patrick Moskwa Five Year timeline mentor Patrick Moskwa is a practicing architect, industrial designer, artist and teacher with a special interest in immersive environments and experience design.

Her clear joy in public speaking and mild likeability led to a position with Social Prosperity Wood Buffalo (SPWB), a community-based project in Fort McMurray that sought to support a culture of social innovation. This directly led to her current position as Assistant Professor of Social Innovation in the Bissett School of Business. She has not abandoned her historical roots however, as she is currently delivering a first - a history of/and social innovation course, where she has already subjected serious business students to a frivolous discussion of resilience and the French Revolution. Upcoming topics include the Dutch East India Company, the Canada Health Act, Intelligence Testing, and (sigh) that new flash-in-the-pan, the Internet. Katharine is currently helming/coordination the Apaat tsi kani takiiks, a three-year Indigenization initiative that builds on the Suncor Aboriginal Business Education Pilot Program here at Bissett. That is, helming it until the incredibly impressive and driven Bissett Aboriginal students mutiny and take over the ship. She can't wait to live in the Canada they are going to (re)build. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1549487195536-TCG87C2FQTHGS8P2L0UM/IMG_1435.jpg Who's Involved Karry Harmer, Human centered design Kerry Harmer is a designer, maker and educator.

This directly led to her current position as Assistant Professor of Social Innovation in the Bissett School of Business. She has not abandoned her historical roots however, as she is currently delivering a first - a history of/and social innovation course, where she has already subjected serious business students to a frivolous discussion of resilience and the French Revolution. Upcoming topics include the Dutch East India Company, the Canada Health Act, Intelligence Testing, and (sigh) that new flash-in-the-pan, the Internet. Katharine is currently helming/coordination the Apaat tsi kani takiiks, a three-year Indigenization initiative that builds on the Suncor Aboriginal Business Education Pilot Program here at Bissett. That is, helming it until the incredibly impressive and driven Bissett Aboriginal students mutiny and take over the ship. She can't wait to live in the Canada they are going to (re)build. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1548352862117-STZN53JR3UF610NMRSUI/-y_x6g_g.jpg Who's Involved Kelsey mcColgan https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1572389211734-NYR6K6ZE0KUBSVE83T9T/Oliver%2C+B_DSC5298.jpg Who's Involved Brent Oliver, PHD, community development Dr. Brent Oliver is an Associate Professor of Social Work at Mount Royal University.

He was trained as an architect and has been practicing design for over 25 years. His fingers reach into many areas of the design and art industry, from buildings, visual art, and interiors to furniture, graphics, products, and wearable design and fabrication. Patrick is a creativity and design instructor teaching Marketing, Entrepreneurship, Information Design, Social Innovation, and Visual Art. He recently received a Master of Fine Art - Craft and Emerging Media, applying a lens of architecture and special experience to craft and material culture. His art practice is driven by place, autoethnography and queerness, positioning architecture as an experience rather than strictly a built form. Patrick has been active with Vivacity as a mentor, guest speaker, and course development co- collaborator since its inception. He has lent his expertise in user-centred design, storytelling, and world-building to help craft a new learning experience for the students and communities to which the course is geared. Patrick prefers to ask more questions than provide answers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1581096434603-5G4BHZ6QCGI9C6XMY0QO/20180410_111207+%281%29.jpg Who's Involved Kathryn Blair, Experiment Design Kathryn Blair completed her Master of Fine Arts at the University of Calgary in 2018 and has entered the PhD program in Computational Media Design there. She obtained her BFA Honours in Visual Art from the University of British Columbia in 2009. Her work seeks to facilitate public examination of the status quo of our relationship with technology by throwing it into stark relief. Currently, she creates interactive experiences that invite visitors to play with ideas about the way computer programs used to make decisions about the public function. In the past, she has used media including wearable technology, physical computing, games and printmaking to explore these themes. She has been involved in the Calgary-based tech couture fashion show Make Fashion since 2013, and has shown her wearable technology work in British Columbia, China, the United States and Ireland. She worked as a Public Programmer at TELUS Spark from 2013-2018 and loved setting up situations in which visitors sang like whales, drew with fake blood, and made Frankenstein toys. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1673902173741-W08OAWI2QAD44DD3V7ZT/Calgary_Public_Library_logo.svg.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1474910991160-5GEMQ4DW8A5E9YXH74GS/CED_FullColour_CMYK.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1474916156650-O1J8BQWQRRFKJUG18LWT/MRU_ICP.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1548279483788-WAUE4D27ZS83VVPIK5H1/city-of-calgary-logo.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1610066287024-JRYN63AWLLVO2QB3EX8Q/Civic+Tech+YYC.jpg Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1671488544357-01U2CI1VZW0YK48YOAZT/bna.PNG Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1671488544476-EDTMVIL7DDMK8HK36Y2N/Calgary-Foundation-scaled.jpg Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1671488544850-18WJ7RJYLCQ5CPPTQXHQ/centre+for+newcomers.PNG Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1671488545072-GS8Z8CYPVCCFDLEA8Q2X/inclucity.PNG Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1671488545410-538S27A813IG050BTRY7/J5_ICON_RED.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1671490411045-S015RF4JHNX9SGJQ1R97/Windmill_logo_colour.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1672769772128-5CDISSNNEHB97WX3UPAL/immigrant+services+calgary.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1610048927905-1A5577VSTUINHZQ46K3X/mru_logo_png.png Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/1610048983994-62NM94LSENNX6B7N4E2A/University-Of-Calgary-Logo.jpg Who's Involved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57b75862bebafbd8b053fc4f/15e67730-ffc9-4b3b-8590-34c852d41aa6/DSC01403.jpg Who's Involved - Make it stand out An Nguyen Beekhof, MGA, Teaching Assistant An Nguyen Beekhof is a Bissett School of Business faculty member at Mount Royal University.
