"I came to 69��Ʒ��Ƶ excited to learn and to challenge myself. Painting allowed me to look more critically at things around me."

Miranda Gontz ’16 discusses her internship at the Academy of Television and her plan for career success in the future.

"Constructive criticism, crucial guidance and the overall knowledge/resources of my professors helped me in my arts career."

I was encouraged and challenged to pursue those things that I am truly passionate about with rigor and discipline.

Prior to their teaching career at 69��Ʒ��Ƶ, Professor Charles Flachs and Professor Rose Marie Flachs danced professionally with the Nashville Ballet, Ballet West, and the Cincinnati Ballet Company.

“My internship with the Media Institute for Social Change was one of my most life-changing experiences.”

Learning about many facets of dance opened my eyes to a range of possibilities and prepared me to take on each opportunity I encountered.

While in graduate school, I began to combine my love of dance and medicine through an internship with Boston Ballet.
