Sophia says her Digital Media Production classes have given her confidence to take on this work. 

"The professors are very supportive of my ideas and advise me on how to keep improving my work," she says. "Having gotten my certification in Adobe Premier Pro in my Digital Video editing course was very helpful in being able to adapt to the PBS Western Reserve workspace. I am grateful for this opportunity and all of the help that my professors have given me."
