Russell Sparkman
Russell is a co-founder of Fusionspark Media, Inc., and the Langley Center for New Media. He holds an undergraduate degree in Political Science from Northeastern University, in Boston, and has worked most of his professional life as a photographer and visual communications expert.
Russell was staff photographer at Northeastern University for six years before becoming an assistant instructor at the Kodak Center for Creative Imaging in Camden, Maine. In 1993, Russell moved to Nagoya, Japan, where he became a sought-after author and speaker on digital imaging trends and a technology consultant for clients that included Toyota and Seiko Epson.
Russell co-founded Fusionspark Media in 1999 in Japan when he created a branded content experience called One World Journeys. Based upon this experience, Russell has advocated and evangelized to his clients concepts that have, in recent years, become recognized as content marketing, social media and social networking.
Russell lives with his family on Whidbey Island, in Langley, WA, where he is a member of City Council and the chair of the Mayor's Council on Economic Health. Russell serves on the board of directors of several arts related organizations including the Whidbey Island Center for the Arts (WICA) and the Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival.
Russell, an avid SCUBA diver since his teens, moved his family to the Puget Sound region to pursue a boyhood dream of diving with the Giant Pacific Octopus.
