  • "I was still new to my current role when I attended the Creative Hub Career Expo 2023. I had a list of several organizations I wanted to contact to increase awareness of the program I work on for ISANS. The expo allowed me to meet representatives of almost all these organizations in a single room. It was a great way to start this current phase of my career."
