We’re deeply grateful to our Los Angeles Regional Advisory Board for an amazing day at our annual retreat, generously hosted by NBCUniversal at the Universal Pictures studio lot last Friday! It was truly inspiring to connect with AOT alum and hear their impactful stories and whose insights are shaping our strategic plan for the next three years. We’re excited about the continued growth, innovation, and impact we’ll achieve for our LA students. Thank you all for your dedication and for making this day so memorable!
