Blake Roberts

Marketing Manager

I'm a man of many interests led by my own unquenchable curiosity. Marketing is the language I speak, with a strategic yet creative accent.

Chicago's South Side is home and gave me foundation. Time spent in Cali gave me perspective. Atlanta gave me opportunity. Morehouse College produced my degree and shaped my character. Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc. taught me how to achieve. The Marcus Graham Project started me on a creative warpath. Now having gone from Ad agencies to fortune 100's to entrepreneur, I'm moving full speed ahead, fueled by the nerve to think that I can dream something up then actually make it happen.
