Meet Our Grads

What do MMC alumni do after graduation? The better question is: What don’t they do?

  • Leana Jannetty ’18

    Finance and Entrepreneurship with minors in Accounting, Economics, and Dance

    “After graduating with degrees in Finance and Entrepreneurship with minors in Accounting, Economics, and Dance, I now work on Merrill Lynch’s Northeast Division Office Management Team.

  • Yvonne Lamar-Rogers ’06

    Studio Art, Art Education

    Yvonne runs her own business, Vonnie Made It. Her mixed-media works incorporate collage, printmaking, wet and dry media, photography, clay, and fiber, as well as one-of-a-kind jewelry—wearable art made of recycled paper and semi-precious beads and stones

  • Ben Chatag ’15

    International Studies and Studio Art

    Ben draws upon deeply personal life experiences to create his colorful and complex contemporary paintings. “I want to visually convey Tibetan philosophical ideas in works that focus on current social, political, and cultural issues,” he says. “The notions of freedom, interdependence, and compassion are important in a time when many are rejecting our connectedness and focusing on differences.”

  • Amanda Webster ’15

    Communication Arts, Concentration in Creative Media

    From the editing studios of Nugent Hall to tea with Dame Emma Thompson, Amanda has had a whirlwind transition to a career in film and television. During her time at MMC, she interned with a producer who later recommended her for her first job on a major film.

  • Amber Adams ’11

    Dance

    “Some little girls played with Barbies. I was making dance and films since I can remember. When I was a child, dance and film were playtime for me and they have always been a part of my life.”

  • Lisa Dupree ’88

    Communications Arts

    As CNBC’s Vice President of the Media Content Center, Lisa oversees a team of 25 responsible for the lifecycle management of the network’s broadcast media – from acquisition through archiving, to workflow and implementation of the network’s media asset management system and infrastructure.
