For Women's History Month, NYU Tisch highlighted several women driving creative leadership in performance, film, and media. Among them, Wyna Liu (ITP '14) stands out.
From the Interview and Article by Alex Manges, Assistant Director of Alumni Relations and from Wyna:
Wyna: “You know what I would actually say to students at ITP and Tisch in general?
“Take what you love seriously. We all have interests and pursuits, and it can be easy to push something aside and tell yourself it’s not that important. But if it’s something you love, or even something that interests you, it’s worth pursuing. Take what you love seriously, and others will too.”
For those pursuing a career in the arts, there is no one “normal” path. Everyone takes a different route to build their career, taking a million different steps in different directions—but no way is wrong if you’re pointing yourself in the direction you want to go.
Wyna's journey illustrates the importance of connecting with one’s passions. By pursuing what she loves, she not only contributes to the vibrant world of word games but also inspires others to take their own interests seriously, reminding us all that every path—no matter how winding—can lead to unexpected and fulfilling connections.
