Buffalo may be known as “The City of Good Neighbors”, but it was the L.A. presenters, mentors, and organizers who deserve the title. These hardworking people dedicated their time and resources to providing us with a weekend jam-packed with valuable opportunities.
We had the opportunity to meet and get to know the amazing industry insiders through presentations, meals, and meetings; we had the opportunity to learn about the fields in which we aspire to succeed; and we had the opportunity to make some great connections with other students and alum who will (hopefully) be the next generation of mover and shakers.
So to sum up my experience at UBC2C, there’s one word that comes to mind: priceless. The advice we received and the connections we made last weekend are our most valuable tools as we enter the industry. We’ll be reminded of just how valuable UBC2C was to us every time we try to get an idea off the ground or interview for a job. For that, I know I’ll be saying “thank you” for years to come.
