Young Pros Spotlight

Colin Touhey

What is your role / current company?
Account Executive, iHeartMedia

When did you join the ARF Young Pros? 2021

When researching a topic you know nothing about, how do you get started?
If it is a new topic, and it has been rather unexplored online, I will go straight to Twitter and see what the conversation around the topic is. If it is an established idea that I am unfamiliar with, Google Google Google.

What’s an example of a company/ brand that you think is doing a great job?

Patagonia is a very impressive company & brand. Their actions speak as they take stances on environmental issues through their long-lasting products, encouraging people to reuse/recycle clothing, and their contributions to preservation and restoration of the natural environment.

What is your favorite restaurant in your city?
While I was a student at the University of Minnesota, I would serve tables part time at a restaurant called Annie’s Parlour. I do not think I will ever get sick of their hot fudge malts, or old-fashioned cheeseburgers.

What’s your dream job? (If money was no object, what would you do?)
My dream job is to be the Chief Brand Officer of a skiing, or outdoor sports company. This role perfectly blends my professional goals with my personal passions.
