We are so proud to have so many successful alums working in the arts. Today we're showcasing Steve Heine! Steve is a Gaines alum and writes: "An architect by education, I embrace the ethos of Mies van der Rohe—one where “less is more” and “god is in the details."
Gaines Fellows take New York! 🗽🍎 Recent graduate Chris Lucas, now working at Morgan Stanley, caught up with Gaines junior Joseph Cox and honorary Gainesian @larahhelayne (who is pursuing their music full-time!) We love to see different cohorts of Gaines Fellows get together!
