Vladan Stegnajaic, project manager of BLKNXPRSS, began working for a club promotion company just as he was finishing his university degree. It was exactly the type of work he had been looking for: fun and social with a lot of tinkering on a computer. But what he didn’t realize at the time was that he was launching his career. “I was working with this company for club promotions,” Vladan says. “And I was slowly getting clients for other jobs along the way. So, when I graduated, I had enough work to open up my own company.”

Vladan studied health sciences, earning a degree that isn’t classically associated with his career as a digital marketing and design professional, but he believes his unique background makes for unique work that stands out. “People are surprised when they find out I did this all by myself,” Vladan says. “It wasn’t hard to learn, because I loved learning it, and by the time I realized this could be my job, I already had some basic skills through my previous work. But I think my work speaks for itself more than anything else.”
