Featured Alumni

Every month we take the time to reach out to our many distinguished and established alumni to see what they have been up to recently or since their time at MCI has come to an end. Whether it's familiar faces to the MCI community or stories you may not have heard, our Featured Alumni will be cycled out regularly and filed away into our Featured Alumni Archive, which you can find below.

Joanna Lira Williams '09

When she arrived at MCI as a 14-year-old from Mexico, Joanna could not have known just how deeply the school would shape her life. What began as a search for serious ballet training quickly became a journey of growth, community, and self-discovery that continues to influence her path today.

John Kosnow '74

"When I went to MCI, it really affected me and changed me for the better... there was a whole different culture that opened my eyes to a lot of different things. It was a very positive and multilayered experience — I can’t say there was anything that didn’t make me a better human being."

Doug Frati '72

The relationship between an artist and their work is always a fascinating case study. For Doug Frati '72, it's about that feeling of the next piece around the corner, waiting to be discovered, that really pushes him to continue creating the magnificent pieces that are now known across the country and globe.
