B.A. UMKC, 2021
Michela graduated with a BA in theatre and is working hard to grow her business as an abstract artist. She knows that University Academy and UA Foundation have shaped her into the woman she is today and instilled the values that have led to her success.
As an artist, Michela is focused on giving back to the community. She loves to connect with schools and businesses in the area to teach paint pouring, which she says is a great release for her students. Art, Michela believes, can help us embrace our emotions and feel empowered on our individual journeys.
Michela’s experience at University Academy taught her leadership, persistence, and determination, and those core values have provided her “countless opportunities for growth.”
