Exploration Journey

Hi, how are ya? 🤠 I’m Brady Wilson — Exploring, Discovering, Building in Austin, Texas. Currently, I work as a Product Specialist at Apple, where I connect people with technology that enriches lives. Outside of that, I’ve spent the past seven years pursuing entrepreneurial ventures. From launching a clothing brand start-up, then pivoting to branding/marketing/investing after learning from my clothing brand failure.

My background blends branding/marketing/investing and technology. I’m completing my Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing & Economics at the University of Cincinnati. I’ve collaborated on a lot of cool projects over the years that sharpened my skills, to name a few; Caper Carts with Instacart, Market Research/Product Development with Champion Clothing, Start-up Clothing Brand Launch with Frill. I believe innovation fuels what’s next. Thinking different, critically analyzing and dialing in all the details refine things to be great.

Beyond my professional life, I have a lot of hobbies! I’m passionate about running, lifting, swimming, biking, flying my drone, creating music, cold plunging, coffee, sauna, boating, creative storytelling, connecting to local farms, the list could go on…

At the core, I believe in staying curious and building with purpose. My focus is on curating experiences, researching/analyzing markets, and developing the best products. All of this positions me to help people unlock their potential.
