Brandon Hampton

LinkedIn Bio: Currently an MBA candidate at WashU with concentrations in Marketing and Entrepreneurship, I am an aspiring international marketer with interests in the entertainment, media, and fashion industries. As a marketer, I believe we must seek first to understand then to be understood, which I learned from the book “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.” Connect with your target audience. Brands are emotional.

Persistence. Passion. Proactivity. “Dance like no one’s watching” is one of my life quotes as a dancer and creator at heart. I apply this mindset to everything I do.

In my career, I wish to combine both my zeal for performing arts and entrepreneurship.

In my personal time, I host a podcast called Ritmos Negros (Black Rhythms) that explores the African origins of Latin American/Caribbean music and dance. Episodes are posted monthly in English and Spanish. Available on all podcast apps!
