Marek司法部

Director of 沟通 Program, Associate Professor of 沟通, Fellow in 天主教 Studies

I am a professor of communication with a 激情 for interdisciplinary work. As an award-winning 电影maker, I explore the world, history, and the human experience. I believe 电影 is one of the most influential 艺术 forms of our times and can deeply connect with our humanity. 作为一名教授, I not only teach students the craft of 电影making but also nurture their appreciation for this profound 艺术.
My personal journey and family history have also cultivated a commitment to Holocaust and Genocide studies. The stories of my survivor family members have given me a unique perspective on this history and the challenges of Human Dignity in today's world. As a PhD candidate, I delve into the transmission of testimony across generations and its impact on the storytellers' identities.
自2014年以来, I've proudly been a p艺术 of the University of Mary faculty, teaching courses in communication, 艺术, and 天主教 studies. Beyond my professional life, I'm a lifelong supporter of Chelsea Football Club, 一个音乐家, and together with my wife Madeline, we celebrate over 20 years of marriage and the joy of parenting nine children.
