From Harlem, New York (U.S.A.), Dr. Noah Morton is an artist, entrepreneur, storyteller, and writer. After earning a degree in liberal arts from Amherst College, he obtained an MPhil in international education at the University of Cambridge before completing his doctorate at the University of San Francisco in international multicultural education.

Dr. Morton studied and worked in India, Brazil, South Africa, United Kingdom, and Greece as well as facilitated empowerment programs in high schools in Japan. Serving as a youth development volunteer for Peace Corps in Morocco, he worked with teachers to coordinate out-of-school learning opportunities. After receiving his CELTA certificate in Barcelona, Dr. Morton transitioned to teaching English in Casablanca, encouraging an interactive approach to teaching, which focuses on the students' lived experiences.

It was outside of school (and partially during) where Dr. Morton was introduced to decolonial theorists such as bell hooks, Christina Sharpe, James Baldwin, Walter Mignolo, Toni Morrison, and Sylvia Wynter, that taught him to combine the spaces of art, craft, design, and critical theory. These theories, merges with contemporary unculture, partially make up Dr. Morton's undisplinary practice today.
