From a Middle School Dream to a Creative Revolution: The unQuestionable Journey
I've been sitting on this brand idea for what feels like forever, tinkering away in the background like some mad scientist chasing perfection. But you know what? Enough is enough. If I keep tweaking and overthinking, this thing is never going to see the light of day. Fun fact: I think I've only ever invited about five people to 'like' my page—and even that took ages. So, here it is: the story of unQuestionable.
It all began back in seventh grade during a Computer Technologies class. Picture this: I'm flipping through the latest Skateboard Magazine when inspiration strikes. My classmate Hipolito can vouch for this moment. We were tasked with creating a fictitious company, and I wanted something that embodied confidence and swagger. That's how unQuestionable Truck Co. was born. (For the uninitiated, "trucks" are essentially the axles on a skateboard.)
This wasn't just a class project; it was the seed of something much bigger. Every time a school assignment called for a mock business, unQuestionable was my go-to. It evolved into more than a name—it became the skate crew, the squad. Shout out to Austin, George, B-Ren, Brandon, and even, Skyler and Zakk. But as life moved forward, skating took a backseat.
Fast forward to college, and I got another shot at bringing this vision to life. unQuestionable resurfaced, but this time it wasn't confined to skateboarding. I dove into music production and design, crafting flyers and even custom skate decks. I had zero formal training in music, but freestyling with the crew and making beats was too much fun to pass up. The energy was electric, blending design, skate culture, and music into one creative whirlwind. But here's where I tripped up: I became obsessed with perfection, and it slowed me down.
Then life threw some curveballs. My son Orion was born, but complications made it tough to see him as much as I wanted. I lost my dad on a Friday the 13th, and not long after, my steady job at Wells Fargo slipped away. It felt like one hit after another. But in the midst of all that chaos, something unexpected happened. I met someone who would change my life—in a McDonald's drive-thru at 3 AM, of all places. "Thank you for stopping at McDonald's, how may I help you?"—the sweetest voice cutting through the static of late-night radio.
What started as a chance encounter blossomed into a wild friendship with Nana filled with festivals, near-death experiences, and even a pilgrimage to Mecca. Fast forward to today, and we're raising our son together, along with a daughter navigating her own medical journey with a rare genetic disorder.
These experiences reshaped my perspective. I started working at First Ave Promo, crafting eye-catching banners, signs, and decals. I've had the privilege of collaborating with some incredible people like Leah, Dalton, and Tyler. Big thanks to Jordan Brien (Mic Jordan) for introducing me to the place. But even as I poured myself into this work, I realized I'm not like other designers, photographers, or videographers. I'm always looking at the bigger picture—how every piece fits together, how business and creativity intersect.
That's why I'm finally pulling the trigger on unQuestionable. This isn't just a brand; it's the culmination of everything I've learned and experienced—the struggles, the triumphs, the creative sparks. unQuestionable is now a full-fledged creative agency specializing in media production, branding, and strategic consulting.
