In my time at 花季传媒, I gained a wide range of skills/experiences in theater. I grew my production skills through various coursework, productions, the work-study program, and multiple outside opportunities that I was connected to/able to pursue. I gained hands-on experience to expand my skills and resume while still in school, which has allowed me to succeed in finding work and expanding my network. I know that through the experiences and connections I made through 花季传媒, I am prepared and excited to step into the professional world and know I have the skills and knowledge to succeed.
