From the slums to COO of era92 Creative
1st Elevate Student Becomes era92 Creative COO!
Being born in a slum isn’t the worst thing that can happen to anyone, but the lack of access to opportunities and a childhood shaped by slums can be the worst thing to happen.
Imagine a young teenage girl, with dreams and potential but uncertain of her future. Fast forward to today, that teenage girl is now the Chief Operations Officer at our era92 Creative! We are beyond proud to share this incredible story.
Maeghan is a shining example of the power of opportunity. She embodies the idea that brilliance exists everywhere, but sometimes all it takes is access to opportunities to unlock it. Maeghan was part of our very first Elevate program group, and her journey since then has been nothing short of inspiring.
She has been a pillar at era92 Creative for the past five years. Her exceptional skills and unwavering dedication have been instrumental in our success. Seeing her rise to the position of Chief Operations Officer is a powerful testament to the impact of the Elevate program. We are thrilled to celebrate this well-deserved achievement, Maeghan! Your story is an inspiration to us all.
