When I say I graduated from NYU, almost every single time people assume I came from Tisch School of The Arts. They’re always surprised to hear about my journey from SPS to eventually being in front of and behind the camera. Although my degree from SPS may not directly translate into the career path I have chosen as an artist, the journey to where I am would not have been the same had I not had my experience at NYU. From the people I met to the current relationships I’ve built and the connections we continue to have, I’m grateful for the support NYU has shown me and look forward to the continued collaboration."
