Hey Fam! | Episode 9: Zipeng Zhu & JP Napleton

Hey Fam! is a "dual interview" series hosted on Zoom, featuring members of our queer family making big strides in marketing and advertising. Each segment features two guests interviewing each other to discuss the importance of queer creativity to brands, and in turn, giving you the opportunity to get to know them. At the conclusion of the interviews, audience members will have the opportunity to ask questions and further connect with guests.

“Three things I hope agencies are doing about inclusion: acknowledgement, action, and accountability.”
- JP
