Ashley Eakin received our alumni grant sponsored by the @Adobe #foundation for her film EXPECTATIONS. She says, seeing more representation of disabilities in the media “makes you feel this sense of inclusion and belonging.”Producer of the film, Shawn Lovering says, “highlighting a type of media that helps lift up this representation...will grow careers.”
Thanks Ashley and Shawn, we look forward to seeing more of your work!
