Comments

“The first time I came in contact with the LIAisons program was when I was judging LIA in 2016 and saw the mentees witnessing the discussions in the jury room. I remember thinking what a genius move that was. It showed an organization that truly contributed to shape the future of creativity. To now be asked to join the program as a coach is a tremendous honor and responsibility.”
