She received a PhD in the History of Art from Johns Hopkins University where she specialized in modern and contemporary art. As a recipient of a Dedalus Foundation Dissertation Fellowship and a Smithsonian American Art Museum Postdoctoral Fellowship, Markoski explored the significance of notions of community to artistic practice at Black Mountain College.

She has also taught courses at American University, The Catholic University of America, George Washington University, Johns Hopkins University, and Oberlin College.
