“I’ve been wanting to mention that as I’ve now finished school and looking back through my experiences, working at MonstrARTity was probably my favourite. I learned so much from Fil and a line I never forget is when he mentioned that we are not judged by what happens to us, instead it’s on how we deal with it. Thanks for everything 😁”
