About Mac Clark 

Mac Clark joined the Division of Online and Strategic Learning in July 2024. She is interested in finding the places where interpersonal and instructional communication meet—a task that led her to research identity, inclusive pedagogy, and accessible course design. Her most formative experiences happen in the classroom, as teaching in the Communication Studies department reminds her that practice is just as important as theory. As an Instructional Consultant, Mac looks forward to supporting faculty members as they refine the learning process.

When she's not working, Mac enjoys cooking, walking her dog Juniper in nature, and watching television dramas with her partner Olivia and cat Samson.
