Ever since she was a child, Jade Watson enjoyed storytelling in all its forms. Inspired by the notion that you could get paid to travel the world and share these stories, Jade knew she was destined for a career in production and media.

The major caveat: as a Canadian citizen, Jade had to convince the U.S. Embassy to allow her to run her own company stateside. Luckily, two years at a venture capital firm and a heap of legal research prepared Jade for exactly the kind of skills she’d need to not only get government approval, but also to fund her business from the start. Cornering the market in original content on emerging platforms, SickBird Productions is a media empire in the making, and this is only the beginning.
