Sage Warrior Gentleman - Three Facets of the Modern Man

Will and I currently work together for a large banking corporation and it became evident very quickly to me that this was a guy I wanted to interview for you for this podcast. He and his partners are responsible for more than a few of the installations and murals you see around Columbus and he's tireless in pursuing new ideas and ways to help further his community.
Will Alston joined JP Morgan Chase in 2020 coming from over 20 years of service in the Digital industry. He is always seeking to deliver the “Most Valued Experiences Possible” for customers.

Will has a mindset of an entrepreneur whether running a startup or as a corporate leader. He has partnered and founded several companies over the years including a tech-based networking group, web technology firm, and a marketing advertising agency. Will has also traversed a rich corporate history for creating better experiences with top companies in retail, finance, banking, and insurance such as LBrands, Victoria’s Secret, IBM, Johnson & Johnson, Nationwide and Chase.

His community involvement in addressing educational gaps and fighting poverty is expressed by donating time, resources, and thought leadership with non-profits such as United Way and Columbus Metropolitan Library.

Will enjoys travel, design, and crafting. He lives in Gahanna, OH and is husband to his beautiful wife Monique, a “girl dad” to an amazingly sporty daughter Mackenzie, and is a best friend to their dog Gucci.
Enjoy,
Jeff
