Growth is hard no matter who you are. But for minorities and marginalized groups, the creative industries have historically not provided the same ladder to leadership that the majority has been given.
Abnia Loriston, Program Director at The Creative Ladder, is working to fix that.
Powered by existing creative industry players like Dionna Dorsey Calloway, David Griner and Ryan Reynolds, Abnia’s work helps to open doors for some that would otherwise remain closed.
The Creative Ladder is currently developing a wide range of free or affordably priced services to help aspiring creative professionals find—and thrive in—their career paths.
