Seth Hurd
Writer, Audience Growth Specialist
I cut my teeth in TV, radio, and journalism, interviewing everyone from Greta Gerwig (The Barbie Movie, Ladybird) Gerard Butler (300, Olympus Has Fallen), alongside hundreds of other pro athletes, Oscar winners and politicians. Now I’m a ghost writer and speech writer, crafting messaging across industries as diverse as warehousing and trucking to tech startups and Fortune 100 companies.
