Staff and Executive Board
Ismael Dominguez is the Programs Specialist for the Wyoming Arts Council with years of experience in engaging in and fostering the arts community of Wyoming. The literary, performance, and visual arts offer representation and connection for the disparate audience of Wyoming, so providing community access to the arts is one of Ismael’s driving passions. Ismael dedicates much of his free time to creating artwork in his studio, but can also be found outdoors enjoying the never ending vistas of Laramie, WY.
Beck (he/they) is an aspiring CPA and accountant at a local non-profit who has called Laramie home since 2020. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and Master of Business Administration from the University of Wyoming, where he founded the UW Chess Club and currently serves as an advisor. Beck’s financial background brings a strong focus on financial strategy and budget management to his role as Treasurer. Outside of work, Beck enjoys reading fantasy novels, especially those by Brandon Sanderson who writes: “Perhaps the question isn’t ‘What use is art?’ Perhaps even that simple question misses the point. It’s like asking the use of having hands, or walking upright, or growing hair. Art is part of us… It exists because on some fundamental level we need it. Art exists to be made.”
Hannah (she/her) grew up in St. Louis, and moved to Laramie in 2020 for graduate school. In her current job, she works with farmers and researchers across Wyoming and Colorado to create agricultural systems that are sustainable, resilient to climatic stress, and economically secure.
She first got involved in ceramics in High School, and has made it a part of her life ever since! She teaches ceramics at Siren Studios in the Civic Center, and in her free time likes to hike, bike, and canoe around Laramie.
Subbi (she/her) is an immigrant from Uganda and has just recently moved to Wyoming. She currently works for a non-profit organization as an employment coordinator. Art has always been a huge part of her life from interning for Young Chicago Authors, to working with the Art Institute of Chicago. She is extremely excited to bring her specific viewpoint to this already thriving organization and can't wait to see around town.
In her free time Subbi writes, reads, and sings karaoke (very badly).
Dylan has lived the majority of his life in Wyoming and currently resides in Laramie. With six year of graphic design experience, Dylan hopes to continue to build his skills and help to continue to foster a healthy art scene in Laramie. He spends his time painting, writing, and watching movies.
