Background

About Alan Brown

I am a creative and technical problem solver with a passion for entrepreneurship. I've had the opportunity to work with big names like The Walt Disney Company and IFE In-Flight Entertainment, and even had a hand in making a few films such as the Will Ferrell comedy,"Semi-Pro." I've partnered with some incredibly talented entrepreneurs to build successful companies like Dexterous Media Group, Sales Setters, Camp Connection, and Christian Camp Marketing. I've also co-founded a non-profit called Sacramento Artists Coalition that brings together talented musicians and promotes original music in California's state capital. I'm not only a creative thinker but also technically savvy. Silicon Imaging chose me to test out their first 2k imaging sensor. I am a self-taught programmer and attended both ITT Technical Institute as well as the film school Academy of Art University. I worked alongside IFE In-Flight Entertainment and Boeing producing a GUI seat-back entertainment system that supports multiple languages for transcendental flights. In addition to the companies I’ve built, I have launched a Star Wars fan community with over 42 thousand active members, supported an RV company sell out their stock during the COVID pandemic by producing an 8 hour live stream monthly, and have been published in business magazines sporting articles pertaining to brand identity, multifaceted marketing techniques, and building businesses quickly from scratch. Although I love what I do, my week isn't all work and no play. When I'm not hustling with business ventures, you'll find me hanging out with my wife and four school-age children at the beach or cheering them on at their various activities. And Sundays you’ll find us in church. I am most often described as a problem solver and systems builder. I believe that a problem is only truly solved if the solution can be documented and replicated. That mindset helped me win the "48 hour" challenge in film school, where I co-wrote and directed a short film with over 70 people involved in production. The film,"Noir," was a huge success and even led to a documentary shoot in the South of France where I had the opportunity to interview royalty and musical legends like Donovan and Julian Lennon. Throughout my career, I've built and sold two successful companies from the ground up - Future Home and The Digital Illusion - and remain an active owner in five other thriving organizations. My ultimate goal for the next twenty years is to continue building, creating, and nurturing businesses alongside hard-working, good people.
