Drew Beam
Drew's career in branding began at the age of 12 working for the family business, his parent's strategic consulting firm. At Beam Inc, Drew used his artistic talents to creat visuals that helped his parents communicate brand stories to their clients. Apple liked his work so much that they printed it on t-shirts for distribution throughout the company (this led to Drew having a part with Beam Inc in the launch of Apple's first PowerBook)
Drew's early experience exposure to branding helped him connect the art of storytelling and imagination to the story of what company is (or can be). He learned how both large and small companies operate, and more importantly, how they can stay relevant. These companies include Apple, Levi's, Compaq, American Cancer Society, DowBrands, Torani, Dockers and more.
The rest of his career has been full of adventures, delights, and artistic pursuits. He earned degrees from School of the Arts in San Francisco and Rhode Island School of Design in fine arts and illustration. He's had great success as an illustrator, being published with Penguin, Time Warner, Harper Collins, Rolling Stone, and many other national publications. Drew has had over ten years experience working in communication and some of his clients include Target, Geico, Toyota, Discovery Channel, Sprint, Saatchi & Saatchi, Publicis and B.B.H.
Drew's mission as a Producer at Fahrenheit 212 is to bring his imagination and love of art to every project and package them all into relevent and compelling stories. He believes that storytelling is the the best way to perpetuate culture and innovation.
