In honor of the Wily Network’s 10th Anniversary, we brought together nine Wily alums for a special video project: Alumni Voices.
This production celebrates a decade of community building and growth—and the role Wily has played in shaping the lives and futures of Wily Scholars.
Under the direction of videographer Cris Santo, each alum was interviewed and invited to reflect on their personal journey and how Wily has made a lasting impact. What emerged was a moving collection of stories that speak to the power of the Wily Pack.
Below are a few highlights from the interviews:
Each alum’s experience is unique, just like every Scholar’s, but the heart and strength of the Wily Pack came through in every story. We’re honored to spotlight the voices of Ajani ‘21, Anya ‘22, Eric ‘19, Jax ‘23, Joel ‘21, Lydia ‘25, Morgan ‘24, Tanner ‘22, and Theresa ‘23, and are deeply grateful for the ways they continue to give back.
This meaningful production would not have been possible without an incredible team. We’re thankful to Cris Santo and her full production crew, hair and makeup artist Jean Carney, and Production Assistant Sylas (Wily alum ’25) for their dedication and care. And a special thank you to Mary Jane and Jim Devins for graciously providing the perfect backdrop for the video shoot.
As we celebrate this milestone year, we’re reminded that the strength of the Wily Network lies in our Pack—and in the stories that continue to shape our shared future.
