First Generation Network bridges the personal and professional gap for first generation college graduates-turned-professionals. Why? While 30% of incoming college freshmen are first generation college students, only 11% of them will graduate within six years. Those of us who become professionals continue to face new challenges — from building social capital and robust networks to overcoming stigma and rising the ranks to leadership — while feeling more isolated and unrepresented in our background.

DEN Entertainment is an independent artist management, publicity, booking and artist development. Services include special events management as well as mixing, mastering, and producing in High End Studios.
