From a new city to confidence at the Landmark Theater

After his family moved from Denver to Atlanta, Xander Lim found his footing at a Landmark Theater while taking college courses toward a video-game-design career.

Atlanta, GA
He's got a great personality and that's what we look for when we hire people. Xander has a lot to offer an employer and I'm glad we snagged him.

When Xander Lim's family moved from Denver to Atlanta, they worried how well he would adapt to the change.

Shortly after the move, Xander connected with Bridges, received job training, and landed a position at a local Landmark Theater. For someone who loves films, it was a fitting match.

The work has given Xander confidence. He has learned to use the local bus system, taken martial arts classes, and started two college courses toward his goal of becoming a video game designer.
