Bruce Bildsten and I met many years ago when I was an Assistant Account Executive at Fallon in Minneapolis Minnesota and he was already a successful creative director. He worked on the Porsche Cars account and I barely knew anything about cars.

Listen in as we catch up on his career and his instinctual way of building deep connections with people at all stages of life.
