Dustin Wills

VP Finance
Hi, I’m Dustin. I know numbers. I am originally from Dayton, Ohio. I have my MBA with a Finance major and an intense Entrepreneurial drive and attitude. I have over 14 years of Executive Management, Global Sales and Marketing experience. In my past life, I was a Media print and packaging executive in Europe and the US, and the 4 years I spent in London broadened my creative and professional horizons. I know what I am and what I’m not. I’m not a director or writer, but I know business. I have met so many talented Directors and Writers that constantly complained to me that they wish they didn’t have to worry about the business side of the business. So we set forth on creating a company…an ecosystem, in which Creatives can just concentrate on executing their creative visions. We take care of the rest.
