Diversity Job Fair: You can be anything but old

For a long time, I’ve wanted to change careers. I’ve wanted to find something more creative, or maybe involving technology. My first try at creative was in theater. I was that kid, doing lighting, sound and stage crew for all the high school and college shows. I worked in advertising for a year out of college before law school. Later, I ducked out of a 24/7 law firm job and managed the Royal George Theater for Lost in Yonkers. A non-union job, the salary was far from a living wage so I couldn’t stay.
