Alumni Spotlight

Anthony Fortino graduated in 2015 with a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting and a Bachelor of Art in Theatre. In 2016, he earned a Master of Accounting degree, taking him to New York to work at Ernst & Young. His plan? To audition for Broadway shows as much as possible while keeping his auditor position as his “day job.” This plan lasted a month, because Fortino was cast in the Fun Home national tour.  According to Fortino, “I would not be where I am without the personal attention I received from the theatre faculty.”
