Hanna Tulis is a Lecturer in Architecture at Cornell University’s College of Architecture, Art, and Planning, where she teaches design studios and seminar courses. She is a 2024–2025 Einhorn Center Engaged Faculty Fellow and currently coordinates the B.Arch. Engaged Practices Studio, a curriculum that introduces students to social action and client service through community-engaged projects. Prior to becoming an educator, Hanna worked at McBride Architects, Beyer Blinder Belle, OMA, and most recently, at Selldorf Architects, where she focused on numerous cultural and residential projects, including the renovation and expansion of The Frick Collection.

She is the founder of Both-And Collaborative, a multidisciplinary design practice in Ithaca, New York. Her research interests span media and lie at the intersection of architecture, urbanism, and the performing arts. With a background in contemporary dance, she is interested in how choreographic thinking can inform architectural production.

Tulis holds a Bachelor of Arts from Barnard College and a Master of Architecture from Harvard Graduate School of Design.
