In this episode, Tori Nygren, Co-Founder and Executive Creative Director of Hogwash Studios, shares her journey from starting as an assistant at Droga5 - without attending portfolio school - to leading a hybrid creative agency and production company. She discusses how her time at Uber shaped her entrepreneurial mindset and how Hogwash blends creative strategy with hands-on production for clients like Airbnb and World Central Kitchen. Tori also offers practical advice on breaking into advertising, navigating your first on-set production, and why persistence and understanding both creative and business roles are key to success.
