Clay Steakley’s career has taken a lot of twists and turns over the past 20 years. He’s been a professional actor and musician, and served as a content director on design projects for colleges, pro sports teams, and Fortune 500 companies.

He has worked as a copywriter, journalist, and blogger in nearly every industry from architecture to zoology (ok, technically it was veterinary medicine).
