Mary Costanza is the Program and Events Coordinator for the Program for Leadership and Character. She earned her B.A. in Politics and International Affairs with a minor in Interdisciplinary Humanities from Wake Forest University in 2021. Mary combined her background as a classical ballet dancer with her undergraduate research interests in virtue, character, and the arts which culminated in her honors thesis, “Dance Training as Life Training: Cultivating the Virtue of Creativity in Ballet.” Upon graduating, Mary worked as the Presidential Fellow in the Office of the President and for the Program for Leadership and Character. She is happy to continue supporting the work of the Program for Leadership and Character, which was so influential for her development and a sense of home during her time as an undergraduate student.
