Her first task was to redesign the existing logo to reflect a more modern look and convey a community-oriented representation of UNH Manchester.

Her landscape photographs are on display in local galleries. Additionally, Piazza works as a freelance graphic designer and photographer and co-owns a wedding photography business.
