Brandon Hunter is a brand strategist, designer, digital marketer, and venture builder with nearly 30 years of experience building brands, businesses, and e-commerce experiences from the ground up.
His path started early: when Boeing tapped his mother, a fine artist, to help build one of the company's first internal web teams in the early '90s, Brandon read every book she brought home and started building himself. He joined an early-wave online advertising network as an Internet Consultant selling websites, and started designing the sites himself as the fastest way to get jobs finished and get paid. The company's explosive dot-com-era growth landed it on the Puget Sound Business Journal's Fastest-Growing Private Companies Top 100 and Deloitte & Touche's Washington State Fast 50, and Brandon went on to acquire the business outright, rename it Super Action Hero Studios, and sell it in 1999. From there he went on to architect some of the earliest Google "I'm Feeling Lucky"-positioned e-commerce sites. That work helped grow niche retailers and manufacturers into category-leading omnichannel businesses across construction, automotive, and fashion, with brands reaching Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Target.
During seven years with the award-winning Ames Bros studio in Seattle, he launched digital campaigns for Pearl Jam, Metallica, Nine Inch Nails, Chris Cornell, Soundgarden, Boeing, Easy Street Records, BottleRock Festival, and other cultural brands.
Since 2020, Brandon has served as Head of Brand for a collection of manufacturing brands serving the construction industry. It's the same range that's defined his whole career: equally comfortable setting brand strategy at the executive level and building the creative himself.
