MAKING THINGS SINCE — Y:1994
I’m Terrel Jackson — a storyteller, content creator, and creative problem solver.
SCROLL
As a Detroit native who always gravitated toward creative pursuits, I found my path after transferring to Ball State University, where I earned a degree in Telecommunications with a concentration in Digital Video, Audio Production & Emerging Media. That foundation led me to a career spanning content strategy, social media management, video production, copywriting, and client services, where I've had the privilege of helping brands and creators tell better stories. Outside of work, I perform as an actor and comedian, dabble in creative and spec script writing, make music when I'm in the mood, go to as many shows as I can, and cater to my love of sports and deep love of pro wrestling.
