Throughout my studies at William Paterson, I learned how to balance many tasks at once and make the most out of each day. I learned how to prioritize my time and focus on what of the Jazz Studies program at William Paterson when I first came to school and what I gained most from him is that it is of the utmost importance to be a good human being above all. He always used to say, “If you take care of the music, it takes care of you.” I’ve found this to be true time and time again! Tell us about your current projects. I am currently living in Brooklyn and have been working a lot with my trio, Kelly Green Trio. We released our album Kelly Green Trio, Volume One, which has received substantial radio play and rave reviews from notable sources, such as Jazz Times, All About Jazz, and the NYC Jazz Record. We’ve performed at Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola, Mezzrow, Birdland Theater, and traveled to the West Coast to perform as well. Additionally, each Tuesday and Thursday, we run a jam session in Brooklyn.

break-up. There are stories being told everywhere I go. As an artist, I am able to use those experiences and channel that energy into my art. Furthermore, my family is without a doubt my biggest inspiration. I don’t know where I’d be without them. I consider myself beyond blessed to have a family that pushes me and cares so much about one another more than anything in the world. What do you like most about William Paterson University’s Music Department? The faculty is outstanding! On top of being great teachers of music, they are amazing performers as well. That helps so much because as a student, you can trust them for their professional expertise as a performer. They’re all so kind and only want nothing but the absolute best for you and

your career as a professional musician.

When did you graduate? 2013 What was your major? Interpersonal Communication What inspires you? If I’m being completely honest, having regular conversations with new people is probably the most interesting and inspirational part of my day. Connecting with different people who come from all racial, socio-economic and even religious views consistently widens my own scope of the world. It really makes me understand and appreciate all facets of life, which ultimately helps me tell deeper, more vibrant stories in my work.


What advice would you offer to current William Paterson University students in the College of the Arts & Communication? Once you graduate and land that first job in the industry, do yourself a favor and never say no. If a boss asks you to do something that really isn’t a part of your job, just figure out how to do that thing and complete the task. You’ll appear capable in the eyes of many and you’ll have learned enough to be able to attain a more valued job or position. I’ll give you an example: I was hired as a general assignment reporter for my first on-air job in Joplin, Missouri. Within the first six months, I reported news and sports, learned how to produce a show, anchored the morning and evening newscasts, and even learned the basics of weather forecasting in order to fill-in. As you can imagine, that last one was definitely the most “interesting” to watch! Nevertheless, learning all of those skills, I never intended of ever doing, gave me more than enough confidence to excel at my next job in Hartford. What have you learned in William Paterson’s Communication program that’s been beneficial to you? William Paterson University has the most up-to-date equipment out there. For the most part, I used better equipment at William Paterson than my first job! It was very helpful learning my craft on state-of-the-art tools. Tell us about your current projects.

be a place where I can always go to tell stories on my own.

The people around me and my ambition to succeed inspire me the most. I’m also inspired by people who take charge of their lives and pursue their dreams; I want to be one of those people. What do you like most about William Paterson University’s Communication Department? I love the opportunities offered by the department. For example, students are sent weekly emails pertaining to internship and job opportunities. This department really cares about the students.


What can you tell us about your work? During the Spring semester (2019), I interned in the Office of the Dean - College of the Arts & Communication. While I consider myself a beginner in the field of Public Relations, this internship gave me a great opportunity to work in areas that I love: social media and public relations. What’s the most important thing you’ve learned at William Paterson University? I learned who I want to be at William Paterson University. Initially, my major was Sports Management, with a minor in Public Relations. However, I realized I wasn’t interested in pursuing that career path and I switched my major to Business Management - for the money. During my second semester of my freshmen year, I had to take a microeconomics course, which I ended up dropping because I was stressing over a course that I wasn’t passionate about. This is when I realized I needed to major in Public Relations. With the help of the Communication Department’s amazing faculty, I was steered in the right direction to make the decision to major in Public Relations. This area of study excites me.

When did you graduate? May, 2019 What was your major? Art History What inspires you? I find inspiration in the everyday. I am fascinated with the various textures of life and the complexity of this world. I feel that Art History is a platform to view this ever-changing world from providing a lens to analyze the human experience. Through art history, we can view the conditions of the times before us which can give us an understanding of the discourse of life itself. What advice would you offer to William Paterson University students pursuing a career in Art? Put yourself out there! Take opportunities to try out your skills and learn new ones, even if it is outside your idea of exactly what you think you would like to do. Personally, I have learned a great deal about myself and my career goals by volunteering, attending events, and looking for ways to meet others who are also pursuing or already have a career in Art. You never know who you will meet or what you will learn about yourself. What have you learned in the Art Department that’s been beneficial to you? I have learned the power of my own voice. The Art Department has been especially supportive in guiding me to challenge myself to develop my own unique perspectives and skills.

Khloe Crimando August Alumni of the Month Department of Art

Tell us about your current projects. In May, I started an internship with The Andy Warhol Foundation of the Visual Arts. The position involves doing research to track auction results for sales of Warhol art and writing a “long memo” on the state of the contemporary art market with specific emphasis on Warhol.

students are numerous. I particularly enjoy using the 3D printers and scanners. The photography studio also has some excellent lighting equipment where you can create some great photo shoots. What can you tell us about your work? I have a passion for various mediums and one of them is 3D and computer-generated imagery. I am really interested in the use of technology in the creation of Art. Students have the ability to use the 3D scanners at Power Arts and I have utilized this in the creation of my work. My 3D work has a hyper realistic/sci-fi quality. I like to play with organic and hard-surface forms when sculpting in 3D. My fine art work is mostly done in a representational style. I love to draw and paint from nature and life, especially people and figures. I find it engaging and meditative. I constantly look to the Renaissance masters for inspiration. What’s the most important thing you’ve learned at William Paterson University? Be social. There is so much diversity on campus. I have met many interesting people here and have learned a lot from others. Plus, it is always great to get feedback from other artists.

ble, yet successful musician. What do you like most about William Paterson University’s Music Department? The atmosphere of Shea and the rest of the music department is one of total support. If you show the desire to grow, the teachers and coaches will do whatever it takes to help you reach your goals. Your fellow students are always there to support you as well; there are many tight knit groups that inter-pollinate with each other. The result is one big family of students and teachers that want to succeed and grow together. You never hear about such a thing in other schools. What’s the most important thing you’ve learned at William Paterson University? So, I’m older than the average undergrad; I’m 25. I’ve always thought that being older, yet, so much further behind was a tragedy. I have recently realized that my status as a student is not my greatest shortcoming. The fact that I thought it was is in fact my greatest shortcoming. My fellow brothers in ΦΜΑ (Phi Mu Alpha) Sinfonia taught me


this. We may be a music fraternity, but your abilities as a musician and your status as a musician are not what we seek in an applicant. Your love for music and your desire to grow because of your music is all we ask for. These facts about ΦΜΑ (Phi Mu Alpha) Sinfonia are what made me realize that I was allowed to not be where I wanted to be yet; I was able to forgive myself for not having yet reached my goals. That was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders and I have only made leaps and bounds forwards ever since. Tell us about your work (i.e. do you play any instruments, have you had any internships, etc). My major instrument is the Trumpet.

the side.

Currently, I teach 3-D Design and Sculpture at the undergraduate level, graduate thesis advisement, and I’m in the process of developing the Product & Industrial Design courses. What’s your favorite course(s) to teach and why? I enjoy all the courses, as they all involve working with students who are usually excited to learn. What have you learned from a student or students while teaching at William Paterson University? Each and every student is unique in their own way, and it is good to learn about their interests and aspirations as I interact with them. The general challenges of life such as the finances and the limited time can seem like obstacles to learning, but they can be taken as tools - realities to empathize with the end users of the creations which the students will eventually end up producing as professionals.


What’s the best thing about teaching? Compared to the industry work where I have the chance to affect the lives of people in an indirect manner via the products that I design, teaching allows me to interact directly with people whom I can share the knowledge. In the larger picture, I believe that the flow of knowledge is multi-directional, and that we all learn from each other. If the diligent

Professor Lorenz’s sculpture

Professor Elaine Lorenz exhibited 5 wall sculptures at the Carter Burden Gallery in New York from August 8, 2019 – September 4, 2019. Her sculpture commission was unveiled on September 22, 2019 on Piermont Pier overlooking the Tappan Zee Bridge. Professor Pete McGuinness’ Jazz Orchestra’s Along for the Ride, has garnered media attention from public radio stations: WBGO and WRTI. During the first week of July, the album was named Album of the Week by WRTI. Professor Michael Rees’ exhibition, Synthetic Cells, will be featured at Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ until January 5, 2020. Professor Robin Schwartz’s photography graced the cover of New York Times Magazine.

Message from Professor Lauren Razzore: Greetings from the Department of Art and welcome to the new academic year. The Department of Art is bursting with new students and full classes this year as we increase our offerings in exciting new directions. Stay tuned for new classes in industrial design and gaming in the coming year as well as a new faculty member in the Painting and Foundations area. The faculty in the art studio and art history areas continue to strive to deliver a contemporary and exciting program while staying true to our core foundations. We look forward to another year of exhibitions, mentorships and student success. Best, Lauren Razzore Chair, Department of Art


Message from Dr. Timothy Newman: Welcome to the Music Department at William Paterson University! Here, outstanding teaching, learning, music-making, and music production combine to create our unique community and a thriving cultural environment. It is our goal to provide the structure and resources to support and help grow students and faculty in all they do, and to provide professional and student performances throughout the year to the university community and the general public. We hope to see you in the audience, or perhaps, on stage! Best regards, Dr. Timothy Newman Chair, Department of Music

Message from Dr. Quicke: If there is one word that we want students to remember when they come here, it’s the word ‘access.’ From day one, we give all students in the Communication Department total access to our TV and radio studios, editing suites and classrooms, film screening room, clubs and organizations. We invite students to get involved from their very first day, knowing that other schools and universities often make students wait until they can get their hands on the equipment and access to the facilities. Not here, as we give students an opportunity to start learning and to start preparing for a future career beyond William Paterson University. After all, isn’t that the point? Your time at William Paterson University should be preparation for the world beyond, and we take our role as mentors and professors seriously with this objective in mind. All the faculty and staff in this department are truly dedicated to seeing students succeed and fulfill their potential. The achievements of the students, faculty and staff over the last year speak for themselves. The students have distinguished themselves brilliantly and have won many awards, some of them on a national level. We have established a reputation for excellence that has traveled from coast-to-coast and even internationally. We ask students when they come to this department – what will you create? We hope they realize that the answer to that is simple: come and create your future. Best wishes, Dr. Rob Quicke Chair, Department of Communication
