Heartbroken to see Israel Adesanya fall to Joe Pyfer last weekend. 🥋 Looking at it through a marketing lens: Izzy was the hype vehicle the UFC used to reach the mainstream. He built a brand so strong it transcended the Octagon. His fighting prime might be fading, but his branding playbook is eternal
Transparency is the only way forward for media vendors. 📉 As we move deeper into 2026, clients are demanding visibility into every cent of their spend. A black box model is a liability when budgets are under the microscope. Trust is built through visibility, not just performance. #AdTech
The AdVance program by Adcraft Detroit is easily the best time investment I’ve made in my career. 🏙️ The relationships I’m building with other young pros and agency leaders are priceless. Community is everything in this industry. Grateful for the Detroit ad family! #AdLife #Detroit

Mentorship is a two-way street. 🤝 Find a pro who likes to help, attach to them, and then find a way to make their life easier. Offer to do the Gen-Z research they don't have time for or help with their social strategy. When you provide value first, you become a partner, not just a student.

Reflecting on 6 months at Publicis Collective. 🏙️ Being part of an agency that is outperforming the industry through tech and AI has been eye-opening. The biggest lesson? Data is useless without a story, and the best teams are the ones that can translate both. Excited for what’s next! #AdLife
The Women’s NCAA tournament is rewriting the record books. 🏀 Ads for the championship are commanding nearly $1.5 million for 30 seconds. This isn't a "trend"—it's a fundamental shift in where the attention (and value) lives. Women's sports are now a blue-chip advertising asset. #SportsMarketing

MSU/NDSU on Thursday. 🏀 Even after an up-and-down season, the Spartan brand thrives when the stakes are highest. It’s a lesson in Tournament Reliability—sometimes the most consistent execution happens when the pressure is at its peak. Let's see if we can close. #GoGreen #MarchMadness
