Passionate creative, lifelong learner.

Born in Baton Rouge and currently based in the Greater New Orleans area, Zoe Cuneo grew up knowing she wanted a career in the arts, but fear and self-doubt stopped her, and for over 9 years Zoe worked on the sidelines an arts admin professional. She earned her B.A. in Film, Theatre, and Communication Arts and her M.A. in Arts Administration, both at the University of New Orleans. She gained a variety of skills working in both corporate and nonprofit arts, for large organizations and individuals… but she wasn’t satisfied. She found herself investing in other people’s dreams instead of pursuing her own.

In 2024, Zoe took the risk, quitting her stable career to become a full-time artist. Through the Mastery Program with the Milan Art Institute, she gained skill and expertise in drawing and painting. She has found her voice and created an expansive portfolio of work. And throughout this program, Zoe has deepened her journey of self-discovery, and continues to learn and transform through her art and her life.
