Year two of Group Effort Initiative and Illumination's PA Training and it couldn't have been better! ✨ We had the absolute pleasure of having the incredible Alex Duffey lead this year's training, along with several guests who are actively working in the industry. They not only shared their individual stories of how they made it but also their invaluable advice when it comes to carving out your own path to success. Big thank you to the outstanding instructors and guests!
