Get to know Jamie:
- What was your first concert? My first concert was Carrie Underwood when I was around 10. I went with my mom and bought a whole new outfit for the show, so needless to say my love of concerts started young.
What do you like doing on the weekends? If some of my favorite artists have a concert on a weekend, there’s about a 99% chance I’ll be in the crowd! I love live music, but I also love hiking/being outdoors, spending time with my friends, reading, and finding new coffee shops to try. - Who is your hero? Not to sound cliché, but I truly do look up to my mom and dad and am so grateful for everything they gave me in life to get me to where I am today. Seeing their empathy, passion, drive and work ethic in everything they did truly shape me into the person I’ve become and want to continue to be in the future.
- Favorite place you’ve traveled? One of my favorite places I’ve traveled to would have to be Mexico. Some of my closest friends planned a girl’s trip at a resort in Cancun and there’s truly nothing better than reading and tanning by the pool all day – and getting dressed up for dinner and dancing at night!
- Why are you excited to work at Dalton? I’m excited to work at Dalton for a variety of reasons, but ultimately, I’m very grateful to have the opportunity to join a team of incredibly kind and talented people that are passionate about creating meaningful work for our clients and helping them achieve their goals.
We also have a few fun facts about Marcus:
- What was your first concert? Death Cab for Cutie.
- What do you like doing on the weekend? Camping, playing board games, buildings things around the house, and sleeping!
- Who is your hero? My buddy Dave. He has helped me a lot by taking me under his wing and teaching me a lot of construction and renovation things. Also, one of his favorite phrases to say is, “You’re my hero” so I always say, “No, you’re my hero.”
- Favorite place you’ve traveled? Probably Olympic National Park. There is so much to see from a wide variety of terrains to so many different types of animals. Also, the plants in the forest parts are totally wild, they remind me of Jurassic Park!
- Why are you excited to work at Dalton? I’m mostly excited to collaborate with people with a wide range of skills and experiences. It’s such a great opportunity to work with so many different disciplines under the same roof.
Here’s everything you need to know about Jamison:
- What was your first concert? Aly and AJ! In fact, that concert inspired me to learn how to play guitar! I still listen to their first album alllll the time. So much nostalgia in those songs.
- What do you like doing on the weekend? I’m always trying to get together and do something new with my friends (at least, when all our schedules align, which is hard these days!). Whenever I have a few free hours on weekends, I love volunteering at Metro Nashville Animal Care & Control hanging out and taking dogs out for walks, playing with the cats, etc. I don’t have a pet of my own just yet, so this is my favorite way to get my dose of puppy/kitty love!
- Who is your hero? My hero is probably one of my best friends, Maddie. She is a Cardiovascular ICU nurse, and she is so great at her job (and is just one of my favorite people). She has an incredible amount of patience and kindness in her heart that reflects in our friendship, and she is always there for me.
- Favorite place you’ve traveled? My favorite place I have traveled is the Outer Banks. Growing up in Virginia, my family would go down almost every summer to a new part of OBX. It is truly one of my happy places (and I miss it SO much—If anyone ever gets to go, Corolla and Duck are my favorite parts to visit).
- Why are you excited to work at Dalton? Dalton has already started to feel like an incredible place where I can learn and grow while making some great friends along the way. I’ve worked in agencies since I graduated college, and there just seems to be such a fresh, unique energy amongst everyone I have worked with so far.
