Name: Daria Volynska 
College/University: Santa Monica College 
Major: Technical Theatre 

Opera Activities: Daria has been a member of LA Opera’s College Advisory Committee and has attended mainstage LA Opera performances through the OperaWise program. 

Opera Character: The Magic Flute is one of Daria’s favorite operas. When she saw LA Opera’s production from this season, Daria was mesmerized by the projections and absolutely loved the opera. Daria says, “It is this opera that has some of the most striking and fascinating video projection that I have ever seen...” As a projection designer, Daria was very interested in recreating the unique and bewitching avant-garde style of The Magic Flute–with the help of her son's Legos, of course. 

Opera Future: After completing her degree, Daria wants to be a video projection and set designer.
