<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>If you're a staff member with profile access, you can keep your own profile up to date — your photo, biography, title and department — from one simple page. You don't need to learn the whole website; signing in takes you straight there.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How do I get to my profile?</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->

<!-- BWG-SHOT id="my-profile-view" path="/my-profile/" region="the profile view with the Edit Profile button at the top" caption="Signing in takes you straight to your own profile." -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sign in with your Brentwood Google account (see the guide on signing in). You land straight on your own profile at <code>/my-profile</code> — there's nothing else to find. You can also go there any time by adding <code>/my-profile</code> to the end of the website address.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>If you sign in and see "You don't have a profile linked to your account yet", your profile just needs connecting to your login. Ask your Marketing team to link it — a one-time step.</p>
