Versatile design polymath enhancing visual storytelling and diversity in design
Becky Scheel, a service designer and Creative and Community Lead at Harmonic Design, has a unique design journey. Her versatility is evident in her diverse background, which includes UX, exhibit design, data visualization, and graphic design. Her experience, ranging from zoos to agencies, has allowed her to create experiences for all primate users, showcasing her as a design polymath.
I serve on advisory boards for the Georgia Tech College of Design and the Service Design Network – Media and Publications. I also volunteer with Her Term, a collaboration to elect women in Georgia.
Charismatic megafauna and designer for human and non-human great apes
Mid-career, she returned to Georgia Tech for her master’s degree, focusing on design with emerging technology in dynamic environments, where she published her work on digital enrichment for orangutans. Her recent project with the Oklahoma City Zoo extends this work. She is passionate about wildlife, red pandas, and giving a h*ck.
