Moldable Genius

Hired while still at school, Kareem brings all the skills of a young and versatile mind to an agency that knows how to tap into the vast potential of youth.

Bachelors of Arts in Journalism and Mass Communications with an emphasis on advertising.

Before Risdall

Prior to taking a job out in the so-called “real world,” Kareem worked as an Account Executive at the Minnesota Daily.

Sleep is overrated

Kareem cites handling 23 credits in one (1!) semester – while working at Risdall – as one of his proudest accomplishments.

Favorite candy at Risdall

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

During my free time...

What free time! (See “Sleep is overrated”) When he can find the rare moment or two away from studying and work, Kareem likes snowboarding, collecting sneakers, growing Mohawks, traveling, technology and music.

Looks are deceiving

You’d never guess by looking at him, but Kareem says his hair isn’t natural. We’re not exactly sure what that means, but we bet he’ll tell you if you ask.

The sky's the limit

In his very brief tenure here, Kareem has quickly acclimated himself to the rigors of life at Risdall and become an extremely valuable asset to the agency. We can’t wait to see what happens when he actually gets some sleep at night.
