“From an early age I learned to treat others with respect, to never burn bridges, and to always represent my Dumas name.”
Born and raised in North Seattle Shoreline area, I attended a private catholic school from Kindergarten to the 8th grade. My home for 4 years was O’Dea High School on First Hill in Seattle and I was opened to a whole different world than what I grew up in. From attending O’Dea High School I gained awareness of how imperfect the city of Seattle is, the cap on opportunities my fellow classmates and minorities had compared to what I grew up with, and overall the many different cultures and people this metropolitan city has to offer.
After graduating from high school I moved to Bellingham, WA where I obtained a Business Marketing degree at Western Washington University. At Western I took a Digital Marketing course that I then decided would be the career path I would pursue. I decided to go down the digital marketing path recognizing we live in a digital internet world now and the opportunities of online marketing. In the summer of 2019 I started my social media marketing brand Dumas Digital that focuses on promoting small business in Seattle that are under represented. For the past 4 years I have gained the experience being an Account Manager in the Employer Benefits world and ultimately have enjoyed doing what I do best and that is serving others.
Besides a career in Account Management and Digital Marketing I spend majority of time being a husband, parent, and ultimatly a super family man with my wife and two daughters. I really enjoy traveling and photographing the world, exploring the diverse food places in all of Greater Seattle, event networking, and spending time with family and friends. If I am not working, taking pictures, or taking part in fatherly duties, I am most likely attending a Seattle professional sports game or spending time with my fitted hat and sports card collections.
From an early age I learned to treat others with respect, to never burn bridges, and to always represent my Dumas name. These golden rules of mine have fueled my networking skills and have created my network that is full of colleagues, friends, acquaintances, community members, past and present co workers.
