Network Technologies Faculty
Erica Honeyman
Department Chair
Design & Technology
Professor Erica Honeyman earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at Kutztown University where she majored in photography. Upon graduating, she became a photo retoucher and graphic designer at a local camera retail establishment where she managed the department. During this time she also assisted professional photographers in the area, doing retouching for them, training them in Adobe Photoshop and learning more about the business of photography. In 1998, she opened her own photo studio where she specialized in fine art portraiture, retouching and creating ads for local companies. While running her studio she was asked to teach part time at Allentown Business School. She really enjoyed teaching and took a full time position at Gibbs College in NJ in 1999. After a year, when her supervisor left, she was asked to run the Visual Communications department. She stayed with Gibbs College until 2004, moving up to an academic dean position and earning a Masters of Education degree in Instructional Technology before she left. She then decided to return to Pennsylvania and accepted the program chair position at Lehigh Valley College for the Visual Communications program.
Professor Honeyman is happy to be back in Pennsylvania doing what she loves...being creative and teaching others how to do the same. She is involved with many artistic activities in the Valley, and is an educational representative on the board for The Greater Lehigh Valley Ad Club.
