Meet Your Team

2nd and 3rd year students from Vertical Immersive have the opportunity to serve your organization and gain invaluable experience by working on your real projects (plus, they get paid)!

These students are led by a project manager and creative director, and supported by our professional team who have years of experience in graphic design, video production, event planning, non-profit marketing, content writing, and sales. The team works closely with our chief visionary officer, who helps our clients determine the most efficient way to meet their goals.

  • Brian Wheeler

    Chief Visionary Officer

    Brian uses his own experience as an entrepreneur to help our clients prioritize their goals. He serves as the “voice of the client”, helping our team understand what the client wants to achieve. Brian is a Kingdom entrepreneur leading service companies that include wealth management, and a wedding venue. He firmly believes that we should do "everything unto the Lord" and holds that our work is truly another form of worship to joyfully serve the King of kings and enjoy a grand adventure inside a life with Christ.

  • Jared Wade

    Project Manager

    Jared guides projects from start to finish, ensuring everything runs smoothly, our team is well-supported, and our clients are always kept in the loop.

    When a new project starts, Jared jumps in by looking at the goals and picking the best team members for the job. He creates detailed plans, complete with timelines and milestones, and keeps an eye out for any potential risks right from the start. With a background in marketing and communications, Jared is involved in evaluating our student team members, helping them grow and succeed throughout their time at the studio.
