Event Recap: Learning & Connecting the FAB Way Event!

Event Recap - Learning & Connecting the FAB Way! In TV & Media presented by The FAB Network - ABC Studios - April 29th

An intimate glance into the TV and Media world

The event was hosted at ABC Studios and was a very comfy and cozy discussion that opened the door for everyone to feel at ease. We were able to have a candid conversation on how to break into TV/Media, as well elevate existing careers. Looks like FAB achieved its goal! What better way to learn than with the FAB family?!

A special thank you to the Honorary Guests for the evening: Glenn Ruppel (Producer for ABC's 20/20) and Kristen Carter (Writer for BET/MTV/VH1 and owner of JazziDreamer Entertainment LLC). All I can say is WOW. I left feeling so inspired, with tons of homework to do. The common theme of the night was to get your feet wet, always put your best foot forward, do your research, make industry connections, volunteer and don't be afraid of rejection because there WILL be someone that gives you a chance, especially if they can sense your eagerness to be great! Thanks Glenn and Kristen, for your words of wisdom and encouragement! You were indeed, FAB!
