Fernando Osuna ’22 (Illustration BFA) attributes much of his personal growth to the vibrant community and experiences he encountered at MICA.

“The opportunities I’ve had—and those yet to come—are a result of the great experience and community I made [at MICA],” he says.

Grateful for the guidance of professors and peers, Osuna’s journey led him to obtain a master’s degree and become a published illustrator in renowned outlets like The New York Times. He encourages current MICA students to “value the people around you and to take the time to know your professors,” to foster personal growth and embrace their passions.

He is excited about his role as a resident tutor in the arts program at Wycombe Abbey School, along with being a STEAM Associate at the Forest School, while continuing to build his career as an educator.
