Did you know a BLAC alum was behind Wendy’s viral quarter zip cultural moment? Ryan Bauman (BLAC ‘22), associate copywriter at VML, shares why “instinct and diversity are essential in brand social media success” with AdAge. We are so proud!

“I never would have thought that BLAC would have led me to work on one of the most beloved brands in social, Wendy’s. Joining a powerhouse in social media felt daunting at first, but overall exciting. Taking one trend, one post at a time, was my way of seeing a new opportunity with and for the team, every day. Then, it happened.” Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/epKk38PC
