Nakesha Holley
Media Director

What got you into this business in the first place? My initial interest started with watching “Good Times” and “Who’s the Boss,” growing up. Then I had a great Advertising teacher in High School that said he wouldn’t teach Advertising II because he didn’t want to help us take all the great advertising jobs from him. Of course, he was kidding, so, I decided to study advertising in college.
Who was a big influence in your career? It was actually 3 media professionals I worked with in NY. Great individuals to learn from!
What was "your finest moment," the thing you're most proud of? The moments when clients love media recommendations and come back and say “Can we do that again?” or “Can we extend that buy?”
