I’m Jamét! Art Director at MARTIN* (The creative agency formerly known as The Martin Agency). Born and raised in Martin’s backyard, eclectic RVA. I convinced my parents to let me go to art school and get a BFA concentrating in Fashion Design from VCUarts. I needed a creative job, but ended up everywhere but. (Ask me about the time I worked in a chocolate factory)

My path to ✨dream creative job✨ was…unconventional… but hey, it’s the climb right? I started in advertising as an admin to execs for 3 years and just kept raising my hand for any creative opp- see Braille sweatshirt to the right>>

• took the risk and told people my plan

• quit my job

• forfeited my benefits

• interned as a Marty in the Creative Department

• pitched New Biz ideas to the CCO on the second day

• Got the job in the fall

The ride has not slowed down since.
