Join us for an inspiring event at Kinowerks where resilience takes the spotlight! We're delving into the power of perseverance when the unexpected strikes, led by the incredible casting executive Tess Sanchez and her personal journey-inspired book We've Decided to Go in a Different Direction.

Honest, open, flavored with hints of humor, we highly recommend reading the book beforehand, available for purchase here and during the event, where you can get your copy signed!

Don't miss out on this opportunity to hear about Tess' career rising to the top and how to overcome when the unexpected changes your entire life, followed by a Q&A + open forum where we can learn from each other's highs and lows.
