Announcing: Art Department Peer Advisors, 2016-17

Hello! My name is Katie Lipp and I am currently one of the two Peer Advisors for the Art and Art and Technology departments. I am a senior this year and intend to graduate in June of 2017. I began my time at UO as an Art major and have since then made the transition into the Art and Technology major. I love working in both traditional and  non-traditional medias and always attempt to let my passions for both guide me in my work. As an artist and designer, my interests lie mainly in print media and visual communication. I also have a huge appreciation for fine art and recently declared an Art History minor. I have loved my
time in the Art Department here at UO and am really looking forward to seeing where my skills and education will take
me after I graduate!

My name is Teddy Tsai and after transitioning from two years in
political science and psychology I am happy to have the privilege to serve as one of your Peer Advisors for the Art and Art Technology majors. Since declaring my major I’ve enjoyed the many resources our department has had to offer and have extended my practice abroad with my fellow Art students. A focus is something I’ve yet to decide on, however one thing I can be sure of is my passion for the new and challenging regardless of artistic association. When I’m not wandering the halls of
Lawrence I enjoy working with the UO students in other communities, such as the Clark Honors College and the University Housing. I find human interaction to be a fascinating thing and often look upon it as the inspiration for my work. As I enter a new year of exploration and growth, I look forward to meeting and learning with every one of you.
