Virtual Class: Career Goals - Leveling Up
This group offers support and guidance for actors as they evolve their careers. Do you know how to market yourself and what your unique attributes are?

Led by Gigi Bermingham, company member and career mentor, CAREER GOALS - LEVELING UP offers practical insights, encouragement and accountability.
