Yesterday was truly a bucket list moment. @ryandetert and I were fortunate enough to be invited to @whitehouse holiday party. If that wasn’t awesome enough, the Assistant to the President, Ryan Montoya, was so kind to give the two of us an amazing private tour of The West Wing. Our sincerest thank you to @mariandimaano and @morgi_mac for their gracious invitation to The White House. Needless to say, this has been the year of a lifetime and yesterday was absolutely the icing on the cake. 🙏🏼

What an amazing honor for us at @influential_co to partner with @forbes to co-create the Forbes Top Creator list, for a 2nd year in a row!! 🚀🚀

POSSIBLE Miami year 4 was one for the books!! I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to take the main stage this year with actor Terry Crews, as well as Ahmed Iqbal and Jill Gregory from the @cadillacf1 Team, to talk about Cadillac's historic entry into @f1 . @cadillac is the first-ever American automotive manufacturer to field an F1 team and this weekend's @f1mia Grand Prix was the team's first-ever US race, so the excitement was at a fever pitch!! Thank you to Christian Muche and the POSSIBLE team for giving me the opportunity to curate, moderate and bring this amazing session to life!! @influential_co #Influential #POSSIBLE #F1 #Cadillac #CadillacF1 #TWGMotorsports

@SXSW 2026 was truly awesome!! Kicked off the weekend on Friday by sharing the SX stage with my pal @adamw and @youtube ’s VP, Anne Marie. On Saturday, I returned to the SX stage for a fireside chat with @jordan_the_stallion8 that was one of my favorite interviews, ever. On Sunday, I joined my friend @shiralazar for CreatorPalooza and hosted a session with @therezakhan , @billybohan , and @brookeberry . And finally, on Monday, @influential_co hosted a @tiktok casino night party, hosted by Jordan “The Stallion.” See you next year, Austin! Stay weird!! 🤠

My brother and I are excited to announce the launch of Le Château. Separate from Influential, Le Château is a personal passion project to celebrate and connect the unparalleled community at the intersection of advertising, talent, and technology. During Cannes Lions, we have taken over the French Riviera’s crown jewel estate @chateaulacroixdesgardes and we are transforming it into a private sanctuary for CMOs, celebrities, and creators. The goal is simple: bring together the people shaping culture and influence through curated experiences spanning AI, sports, media, and beyond. For our inaugural year, we have partnered with @fanatics Advertising, Virtuosi League, and The @femalequotient . @gormanjeremi , @nadine.dietz , @shelleyzalis , and @taliabendersmall are cultural powerhouses, and we could not imagine anyone better to help curate this experience. We have secured the rights to this property for years to come as we build the new ecosystem to help companies and executives navigate the next era of ideas, creativity, and connection. There are 17 luxurious suites being filled by the biggest culture-makers in sports, music, and entertainment, and we are located 15 minutes from the Croissette. Comment below and we’ll DM you more info on Le Chateau and the location.🥂

Super Bowl LX week was amazing! We launched @influential_co Sports at the @publicisgroupe Super Bowl party, where I had the pleasure of interviewing D’Andre Swift and spent time with NBA legend Magic Johnson. I caught up with the @nfl Commissioner Roger Goodell at the @youtube pregame party and did my best @obj impression via the GlamBot at YouTube’s flag football game. Had the opportunity to meet NFL legends Aqib Talib, Doug Flutie, and Fred Warner and spent quality time with my @bbbsamerica family at their Mentorship Moves Culture event. And best of all, I got to take my beautiful wife, @lisalaffertyevents , to her first Super Bowl!! ❤️ 🏈

Life is just better with you in it. Please join me in wishing my favorite person a happy birthday!! I love you endlessly, @lisalaffertyevents ❤️

2025- what a year!! Life just keeps getting better!! Thank you to all my family, friends, and colleagues for making this the best year yet. 2026, here we go!! 🚀🚀

Still absolutely buzzing from Sunday’s dream day at Mile High!! My amazingly talented friend, @collinskey , brought his 35mm film camera and caught a completely different perspective of the experience, making the memory of it feel even more vivid. This is a day that I will truly never forget. Again, huge thanks to the @broncos and @haileywumom for making this day possible!!!

Sunday was one of the best days of my life- an absolute bucket list moment!! As a lifelong Denver Broncos fan, going to Mile High Stadium has always been a goal of mine, but thanks to some amazing friends, it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. From going on the field before the game, to sitting in the President’s Club, to having custom jerseys made for us, to beating the Green Bay Packers and clinching a playoff berth, the Denver Broncos pulled out all the stops!! Thank you to @broncos , @haileywumom , @damonberger , @mattslayss , @rebeccazamolo , @collinskey , and @devankey for making this dream day possible. My inner child is screaming right now!! 🧡💙 🐎

F1 Vegas was lit!! 🔥 🏎️ Influential collaborated with @tiktok.forbusiness on #TikTokClubhouse, an @f1 Las Vegas experience, this past weekend. This two-day creator event brought together some of the industry’s most coveted talent to explore immersive zones, try custom filters, and take on interactive challenges, creating shareable moments that blended the thrill of the race with TikTok’s signature energy. Thank you to @nskoks , @palmcoconut , and everyone who made it a wonderful weekend at Formula 1. We can’t wait for next year! #Influential #Formula1 #LasVegasGP #F1 #LVGP #TikTokForBusiness
