  • Test, Trust, and Triumph: Creative Leadership Strategies with VP of Marketing Eric Jackson
    May 1 2024

    Eric Jackson is the epitome of blending pragmatism with creativity. His journey into the marketing world began during his freshman year of college, where he initially enrolled to study international business. Motivated by a nomadic upbringing, Eric initially thought international business would be his gateway to a career that combined travel and trade.

    However, Eric soon encountered an unexpected hurdle; to proceed, he needed to master a foreign language, a skill he admittedly struggled with. This pragmatic realization led him to explore other options within the School of Business. After dismissing several majors, Eric stumbled upon marketing. It was the memory of innovative and captivating Target commercials from his college days that sealed his decision. Seeing an opportunity to craft similarly engaging campaigns, Eric pivoted to marketing, setting the stage for a career where he could unleash his creativity and satisfy his curiosity while staying aligned with his practical nature.

  • The Secrets To Overcoming Perfectionism and Finding Success with David Kim
    Apr 17 2024

    Meet David Kim – the guy who pretty much nailed the networking game without even realizing it. It turns out, all those connections David was making on the fly? They were golden. When he wasn't busy making friends in high places, he was out there hustling – cold calls, cold emails, you name it. David was all about making moves to get what he wanted.

    He’s the type of guy who's not shy to shoot his shot, asking for opportunities left and right. And yeah, sometimes that meant working the grind without seeing a dime. But for David, it was all about the long game – getting his foot in the door, soaking up all the experience, and not stressing over immediate payoffs.

    The cool thing about David? He's from that old school breed – the ones who are down to roll up their sleeves and dig in, even if it means starting from scratch. That's a rare find in a world where everyone's looking for the express elevator to the top.

    David’s story is less about following a set path and more about carving his own by playing it smart, being bold, and having the guts to take a chance. He's living proof that hustle, heart, and a little bit of "I’ll do whatever it takes" is a killer combo for making waves.

  • From Self-Doubt To Design Executive with Travis McCleery
    Apr 3 2024

    Travis McCleery's career path is a narrative of discovery and change. With a deep-seated love for math, science, and art, Travis entered college with the goal of becoming an architect, only to find that his school didn't offer the program he desired. He opted for computer science as a temporary measure, planning to shift to architecture later. However, his first semester in computer science made it clear that this was not his calling.

    Embracing flexibility, Travis pivoted away from computer engineering and toward an undiscovered passion—design. Through this transition, he would uncover a penchant for crafting user experiences rather than constructing buildings. What started as an unexpected detour became Travis McCleery's true professional pursuit, merging his artistic sensibilities with the functional aesthetics of design.

  • From Homeless To Creative Agency Owner with Jeremiah Jimeno
    Mar 20 2024

    Jeremiah Jimeno's artistic journey began in the innocent scribbles of stick figures and the vibrant hues of coloring books from his childhood, where the allure of the art world first captivated his young mind. Fascinated by the transformative power of art on emotions, thoughts, and personal expression, Jeremiah found himself entranced by the creative process. His imagination, once fueled by the adventures of He-Man and Transformers, began molding his own artistic identity.

    As destiny would have it, a family party became a pivotal chapter in Jeremiah's story. The day his uncle entrusted him with a hefty video camera—a prized possession off-limits to the curious hands of children—marked a new trajectory for his passion. Jeremiah, the youngster who had been content with pencils and crayons, was suddenly awakened to the moving images and the thrill of storytelling through a lens.

    Holding that camera, Jeremiah found more than just a piece of technology; he discovered a gateway to a future where his childhood love for art would blossom into a life defined by visual storytelling, a passion that would undoubtedly shape his destiny.
