Kudos to you Mike, and to the entire staff at OUTFEST. 💔 – at Los Angeles, CA
Mike Dougherty@Mike_Doc27 Oct 2023
Sad to report that I and all Outfest staff have been let go from the organization. Amazed that it's come to this. Forever grateful for the team I was able to work with the past four years. Lots of talented folks now looking for work, so reach out with opportunities!
