Kierstyn Hunter
M.A. Whole Systems Design, 2007
If you ask her why she chose Antioch, Kierstyn Hunter will say it was an intuitive decision. She had just moved to Seattle from London, where she had been working with youth offenders placed in care homes.
"I have gained much inspiration from both Sadru Boga and Barb Spraker."
"I didn't really choose Antioch," she says, "I stumbled upon it.
"I had recently opted not to accept a position in an M.A. program abroad and had moved to Seattle. Once out here, I ended up on a mailing list somehow and decided to come in to see what the Center for Creative Change program entailed.
"It was an intuitive decision and a lesson learned in trusting my instincts. I don't think I could have chosen a more appropriate program for the place I was, at the time I made this choice."
She points to key faculty members who inspired her.
"I have gained much inspiration from both Sadru Boga and Barb Spraker. Both of these individuals have an amazing energy about them that breathes inspiration into their students.
"Barb's welcoming personality invites not only friendship but also creativity in thought and a heartfelt purpose to students' work.
"Sadru has pushed me to challenge my thoughts and to reach an entire new level of comprehension with my graduate learning. His genuine interest in my growth as a student impacted my commitment to my studies and has truly helped me to see my potential for the future. But probably more than anything, Sadru shared more through his unending sense of humor and lightheartedness," Hunter says.
