Adrienne Jones Erdman graduated from Boston Architectural College in 2016 with a Master of Design Studies in Design for Human Health program. As part of the first graduating class of the program, Adrienne has had the pleasure of informing iterations of the curriculum and seeing the program grow in popularity and reputation. She has recently joined the inaugural Institutional Review Board (IRB) for the BAC, collaborating with other researchers and educators to develop research ethics review services for BAC staff, students, and alumni.

With a background in biomedical and human factors engineering, Adrienne spent 10 years in the product development industry honing her applied research, stakeholder management, and human-centered design skills. She is now applying those skills as the Director of Design Research for EwingCole, where her team generates and leverages data to inform physical and operational decisions throughout the entire built environment design process. Her work focuses mainly on healthcare projects, but has also included science & technology, workplace, and K-12 education.

Based in the Atlanta area, Adrienne enjoys exploring restaurants, shopping, interior decorating, and spending time with her young family.
