Driven by Design: UIW Alumnus Arnulfo Maldonado Finds Success on Stage
For alumnus Arnulfo Maldonado, Theatre was never about one thing – he loved every aspect of the art form. From acting to set design to costuming, Maldonado had his hands in just about every element of stage production as he could – more so when he was accepted into UIW as a theatre arts and English double major in 1998. He credits the comprehensive education he received at UIW for the work he is currently doing as a full-time freelance set and costume designer in New York City.
