He came to Georgia College with the opportunity to develop two new curricula for the BA in Art with Graphic Design Concentration and Graphic Design Minor, which included the development and approval of seven new courses. Both programs were designed to better prepare students with the skills, creativity, and imagination.

Abraham’s typefaces are being used in number of tv series and feature films such as Eregnaye (እረኛዬ) (the popular Ethiopian TV drama that has been aired on ARTS TV and streamed on YouTube). Sene ena Segno (ሰኔ እና ሰኞ) (drama series being aired on Fana Television), Min Litazez (ምን ልታዘዝ) (comedy series being aired on YouTube), and Doka (ዶቃ) (feature film released in theaters). His Ethiopic typefaces also used on the music albums titled “VI” by Rophnan, and “Lewit: ለውጥ” by Samon.

As a studio artist, Abraham exhibits regularly both in the USA and abroad. His paintings, drawings, and installations have been featured in 11 solo and more than 50 group exhibitions.

A musicologist by profession, she teaches various music history courses, including Music History I & II, American Music, Studies in World Music, and American Music and Politics, as well as conducts Women’s Ensemble and Music Theatre Scenes. Her research on music and American presidential campaigns appears in Music & Politics, the Journal of the Society for American Music, and the Journal of Popular Music Studies. Her work on America’s Got Talent star Jackie Evancho appears in the edited volume Voicing Girlhood in Popular Music: Performance, Authority, Authenticity (Routledge) and in the journal American Music. In 2018 Gorzelany-Mostak won an Award of Excellence from the Broadcast Education Association for “Songs in the Key of President C: Music on the Campaign Trail,” a digital lecture funded by a grant from the Society for American Music. Gorzelany-Mostak is the founder of Trax on the Trail, a website and research project that tracks and catalogues the soundscapes of US presidential elections. At present, Gorzelany-Mostak is working with Jennifer Flory (Professor of Music, Georgia College) to create a recording of 19th-century campaign songs as part of the project "Songs of Political Persuasion: Hearing Music on the US Presidential Campaign Trail, 1840–1918." In addition to writing essays for several public musicology websites, Gorzelany-Mostak has provided her expert opinion for news outlets such as the BBC, The Guardian, Variety, Pacific Standard, Inverse, and The Boston Herald. Her forthcoming book, Tracks on the Trail: Popular Music, Race, and the US Presidency, analyzes the official and unofficial musical activity surrounding 21st-century presidential campaigns, shedding light on how the racialization of sound intersects with other markers of difference and ultimately shapes the public discourse surrounding candidates, popular music, and the meanings attached to race in the 21st century (University of Michigan Press, 2023).
