During the event Latin GRAMMY® winner and GRAMMY® nominee Aymée Nuviola shared with students her career experiences and her diverse skill set, which allows her to perform in different genres, from salsa, bachata, jazz and boleros to bossa nova, nueva trova and sensual ballads. UCF students pursuing degrees in entertainment management ran the production of the program.

These educational experiences provide students with invaluable firsthand experience and insight from the seasoned professionals they aspire to be.
