Feuerstein is a retired Associate Professor of Architecture at Virginia Tech's College of Architecture Arts and Design, where she contributed to the Washington Alexandria Architecture Center's masters and PhD programs. Her academic career includes roles at Temple University (Adjunct Assistant Professor), University of Pennsylvania (Lecturer), and University at Buffalo (Visiting Assistant Professor). She holds degrees from Tufts University (B.S.), University at Buffalo (M.Arch), and University of Pennsylvania (PhD in Architecture, Theory and History).

Her research focuses on architectural embodiment, performance, and theater, particularly through the lens of Oskar Schlemmer and Bauhaus studies. She explores intersections between architecture and the body, women in architecture, and narrative techniques in design.

Feuerstein's publications span topics from camouflage in modernist art to Le Corbusier's Ronchamp, emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches. Her work challenges traditional historiography by centering marginalized perspectives in architectural discourse.
