    There’s no better city to be in for business majors. The people I was able to surround myself with, the internships I was able to attain, and the accessibility were all invaluable. MMC takes ‘NYC as your campus’ seriously, and I always felt supported in learning outside of the 71st street campus.

    Graduating with a double major in Business Economics and International Studies, and a minor in Asian Studies, my course work in Mandarin language and Chinese literature, business and history at Marymount has proved extremely relevant to the work I did at Christie’s, helping me to accomplish tasks such as the provenance research for ancient Chinese art.

    During my summer internship, I worked on analyzing currency risk exposure, hedging activities, and presenting macroeconomic projections for Granberg AS. I was also involved in conducting marketing research by creating in-depth questionnaires, collecting responses, and utilizing SPSS software to evaluate and present results and suggestions on which direction the company should take in the future.

    What did I enjoy most at Marymount? First and foremost would be the faculty of the Business Division. Each member of this team brings forth an unprecedented knowledge base in an array of subject matter. But what separates them from simply being intellects is their pride and love for teaching.

    MMC’sclose proximity to museums like the Metropolitan Museum of Art allows for courses to be held in front of works of art, which, as an Art History student, was incredibly important and rewarding to me. Because of the small size of the program, the professors are aware of their students’ interests and are always on the lookout for new learning opportunities for each of them.

We had so many names that we needed another post! As we continue to celebrate Sunday's Tony Awards, congratulations to these talented members of our community who presented, performed, or helped support the productions we love: 🔵 Greg Uliasz ’12 is a partner at MSA Talent Agency (and is married to fellow Theatre alum Eric Leiggi ’15!). MSA represents a range of Broadway talent, including artists in six productions that were nominated or won 2024 Tony Awards, such as “Suffs,” and “Cabaret.” Here he is with client and “Suffs” choreographer Mayte Natalio. 🔵 Assistant Theatre Professor Jesmille Darbouze-Smith, who starred in the 2023 Broadway revival of “A Doll's House,” presented the 2024 Excellence in Theatre Education Award recognizing a K-12 theatre educator. 🔵 Noah Pyzik ’19 made his Broadway debut as The Deputy in "Purlie Victorious," which had six nominations Sunday night, with star Kara Young winning her first Tony. 🔵 Robert Reed-Jones ’05, vice president and head of theater at the advertising agency AKA North America, saw several clients win this season, including “An Enemy of the People,” “Hell's Kitchen,” “Cabaret,” and “Purlie Victorious.” #theatre #nyc #tonyawards

We saw some familiar faces at Sunday night’s Tony Awards! Congratulations to faculty and alums who performed, presented, took home awards, had productions that were nominated, or worked behind the scenes representing and supporting the incredible talent on Broadway! To name a few: 🔵 Assistant Theatre Professor Michael Mendez is featured in the ensemble of the Broadway musical “Water For Elephants.” The show was nominated for seven Tony Awards, with Mendez and castmates taking the stage on Sunday for an incredible performance. Watch it at the link in our bio. 🔵 What do the productions “Suffs” (which scored two trophies) and “Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club” (which took home one) have in common? Michael Duling D’Angora ’04 who served as a co-producer of both. D’Angora is pictured here with adjunct Theatre faculty member Leigh Goldenberg ’04. 🔵 Goldenberg had reason to celebrate, too: She’s the managing director of Philadelphia’s Wilma Theater, which received the 2024 Regional Theatre Tony Award. The prize recognizes a regional theatre company that has displayed a continuous level of artistic achievement contributing to the growth of theatre nationally—and is accompanied by a $25,000 grant. 🔵 The Alicia Keys musical “Hell’s Kitchen” had a big night, with 13 nominations and two wins—and Jackie Leon ’22 was there, performing and celebrating with castmates. (Watch them at the link in our bio!) Leon plays the role of Jessica—which they originated during the show’s 2023-24 Off-Broadway run—and appears in the ensemble.   🔵 Boutique talent agency The Mine—home of agents Ellery Sandhu ’01 and Eric Leiggi ’15  and talent coordinator Flynn Navin ’20—had several clients in Tony-nominated and award-winning productions, including “Suffs” and “Back To The Future: The Musical.” Phew! More to come!
