Dan Winske graduated from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth in May 2007 with a BFA in Graphic Design. While earning his degree, Dan worked as a photographer for The Standard-Times in New Bedford, Massachusetts. His senior thesis, which showcased his expertise in both graphic design and fine art photography, was themed around horses and harness racing, which his parents were involved in professionally as Dan grew up. Dan estimates that he takes around 100-200 photos every day.

Michelle Alexander, 29, Writer.
Although she graduated from Emerson College with a BA in Communications and a concentration in Video Production, Michelle Alexander made a conscious decision not to move to the West coast and tackle the “Hollywood ladder.” Instead, with a desire to make a “daily contribution to the greater good of the world,” she decided to teach video and radio production to junior and senior high school students. Discovering a love of teaching, Michelle went on to become a teacher of English, Film Theory and Theater Arts as well as a field hockey and basketball coach at the public schools in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. But Michelle’s dream has always been “to be a storyteller in many different mediums,” and her current quest is “to reconnect with that up-and-coming artist that studied at Emerson.”
