Rising To New Heights, When The Magic Happens

Tyler Hays first came to my attention when he and his team worked with the KEC as one of the startup groups building their company/product/pitch (Evolvr) for a competition working to attract investment dollars. I’d helped another team with some design mentorship and was exposed to each team working in confined spaces and compressed schedules.

Tyler’s gone on to found his own company and has grown it steadily while somehow finding a balance between family, work and his values.

Saying Yes, Honoring Mentors, Pay What You Want

Jody Collins is a Knoxville born and bred creative with a streak of stubbornness he’ll not only own up to but probably credit with a lot of his success. With a background in old-school visual design and printing, he’s equally comfortable maintaining and operating a giant press or figuring out how to make his clients look good with designed collateral, social media savvy or even copywriting.

Machine Learning, Checking Boxes and Fighting Fear.

Shane is an old friend of mine, a high school era acquaintance with whom I have many things in common, including our age, the number and ages of our kids, many of our interests. For that reason, perhaps it’s a bit narcissistic to have him on as the first guest, but folks – he’s an amazing fella I’m privileged to have had on the show.
