Alumni Spotlight: Daria, Julia, and Miles

Not one, but two Burke alums were SMYAL LGBT Youth Leadership Award recipients in 2024. Daria Strachan '24 received the Sophie's Live Out Loud scholarship, as "she exemplifies leadership primarily through her passion for filmmaking." Julia Vazquez-Brunetti '23 was honored for community leadership, including reinvigorating Burke's LGBTQ+ affinity group. 
Now earning a Bachelor's of Music (Jazz Studies) at New York University, Miles Tanner '22 and fellow NYU musician Sonia Baturina just released their new album, "We're All Smiles." Listen today on Apple Music! Miles also regularly plays at Rockwood Music Hall, The Bowery Electric, and 54 Below, among other New York venues.
