Dean College has been an integral part of my professional success. I left Dean with a solid foundation that I have been able to expand on while pursuing a life in theatre and film. Through Dean, I have been able to grow my network by meeting and connecting with other alumni, which has led to jobs and bookings. Dean’s tight-knit community really is a family!”
