Makers Of Sport Podcast

José Lopez, creative director of the Houston Rockets joins Adam this week to discuss his long persistent journey to the NBA. José grew up both in Panama City, Panama as well as New Orleans, Louisiana. From a young age he wanted to work in sports and after stints at major advertising agencies and a few moves back and forth from the U.S. to Panama due to work visa issues, he finally landed his dream gig in Houston. The two touch on the importance of making your own work and tailoring your portfolio to the sports industry if you are interested in working in sports.
