After a decade in Italy as a design consultant and creative director, Rebecca found that the young designers she hired struggled with problem-solving and critical thinking. She returned to the U.S. to study education and built on her BFA in Industrial Design from The European Design Institute in Milan, Italy with a M.A.T. in Art . Her Master's thesis focused on Design Thinking and evaluating and enhancing creativity through the study of design and art, writing the books: The Space: A Guide for Educators and The Space: A Guide for Leaders.
Tacy is a lifelong educator and learning enthusiast whose passion is inspiring students in all stages of learning, giving them a voice and empowering them to develop creative skills. She started her career as a teacher in California schools and then led learning and research initiatives at the University of California and Stanford. Today, she heads a global education team at Adobe and hosts the Creative Educator Podcast.
