Madison grew up on the coast of Maine and earned both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in architecture from Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana. She has been a member of the faculty at Virginia Tech’s School of Architecture since the fall of 2022 and is deeply committed to the foundational education of architects and designers. This commitment manifests through experiential, studio-based learning that emphasizes drawing and making. She encourages her students to learn by doing, with travel serving as an integral part of her teaching approach. While in school, Madison had opportunities to conduct her own independent research projects in Norway and the Czech Republic. Now, as a part of Virginia Tech’s School of Architecture Fall Travel Program, she leads cohorts of upper-year students to significant architectural sites across Europe.
