Please share which teacher/class at OSA had the greatest impact on you and why:

Amy Marie Haven’s production class was amazing because of how hands on it was and I definitely learned the most from doing. She is a caring and passionate teacher who has given me opportunities outside of OSA and continues to maintain a friendly and professional relationship with.
