I’ve always been a person who likes to explore every element of my field rather than focusing on one thing. I think my time at Miami really prepared me to step into the professional world in that way. I’ve been really lucky that I’ve had jobs right out of school. And it’s not easy to get theater jobs right after graduation.

Like many people, I had more than a few things that I was passionate about, and unfortunately, I couldn’t make a career out of all of them. I learned about the immense backdrop that frames the arts industry, made of administrators, managers, and entrepreneurs of all stripes, and more than a few lawyers. The Arts Management Program allowed me to explore a new world of employment opportunities.
