Jon Barnes
A True Creative Communicator
A true creative communicator, Jon has experienced enough seemingly disconnected careers in his short lifetime to confuse any guidance counselor. Charging ahead with the realization that creativity can be applied to any profession, Jon has had a diversity of careers- all with a common thread of creative communications running through them. From running his own advertising and design firm, serving in full time youth ministry, working in healthcare marketing, legal and regulatory marketing, coaching, and YouTube.
He holds an Undergraduate Degree in Bible and Theology from Washington Bible College, a Master’s Degree in Modern Studies from Loyola University Maryland, and after flirting with a Doctoral program eventually decided making YouTube videos was a better investment of energy. Jon is married and has 5 kids and is the author of Creative Threads, a career-finding and entrepreneurship handbook for students and young professionals (2018 Apprentice House Publishers), and Brand Thyself!

Hearing these pointers has reassured me the steps I have taken in the past were the correct ones and I am heading in the right direction. After graduating college I adapted (and lived by) the notion to try everything because you never know what you might discover about yourself and your passion. I have also found a mentor who is successful within my field of interest and willing to guide me. After listing to the course, I realized one thing I do need to work on is establishing my portfolio.
An excellent course for anyone starting a creative career or considering starting one.
Nice and helpful ideas about career selection and progression.
