States Eric Huber, Co-Owner and Chief Creative Officer,

Mark has a tremendous gift for coming up with creative impactful solutions when it comes to marketing strategies for businesses. He also has a true desire to see others succeed.

Adding his enthusiasm and energy to Blue Zoo is going to be a huge benefit for our patrons and community.”

Cloud says,

I truly believe that good ideas can become great ones when shared with others. Collaboration is a big word but it just means that you aren’t too arrogant to believe that others may have a better idea than you do, so you’re not afraid to include them in the creative process.

A lot of people have solid theories or really neat ideas but only a precious few can actually deliver the goods. Because that takes real work and dedication to your task and to others.”

Blue Zoo Creative is very excited to have Cloud as our new Partner and Chief Marketing Officer, and we look forward to a great collaborative future.
