Gophers leave their mark, no matter where they go. We’re still celebrating our alumnae/i and the ways Goucher shaped their journey. This month’s Global Changemaker is Carol Pino ’14.' Since graduation, I completed a master’s in art history and have worked in the fine art world in New York City for about a decade. I found so many different communities at Goucher, and they all let me explore different passions. My degree from Goucher is a double major in Business Management and Art’s Management with a concentration in Art History, and all of my classes are applicable to what I do on a daily basis.'
