Jon Jacques didn't have a traditional passion in college. In fact, from age six, what he loved most in the world was magic, and even spent a good portion of his childhood giving performances around the world.
While a skill like this may not seem to have many transferrable skills, it was actually Jacques' talent for wowing a crowd that landed him his current gig. While in college, he met Alexander Debelov, the CEO of Virool, who was impressed with his presentation style and ability to connect with people, something he felt would translate seamlessly to impressing clients.
Jacques now uses his crowd-pleasing skills every day as he works with Fortune 500 companies, major music artists, and celebrities to ensure they get their video campaigns up and running smoothly and have everything they need to be happy customers.
