What attracted you to the Arts Administration Program at Teachers College, Columbia University? The possibility of looking at the arts as an integral part of society, and being involved in the inception and management of organizations devoted to making it as accessible and universal as possible.

How are your studies helping to advance your career goals? The classes, professors, and fellow students are a wonderful door into what makes the art world so diverse and dynamic. The access to new industries, new practices, and new ways of thinking is incredibly helpful.
