Josh Jackman

CEO and Founder

When Josh Jackman was 15 years old, he was determined to do what he could to help support his single mother and four younger siblings. While a sophomore in high school, he participated in several sports, picked up a part-time job and simultaneously began working on an associate degree. With resolute persistence, he graduated high school with an associate degree setting himself on an accelerated career pathway. His drive and ambition landed him in the international packaging market where he currently manages a consumer-goods-based packaging portfolio of $12.5 million annually.

Josh has been instrumental as a consultant for both startups and established companies within the packaging industry, successfully advising management to 3x growth (on average) within various strategic sectors. His success was evidenced by him setting multiple company records for sales growth and total booked sales, eventually helping establish the company's accelerated sales strategy. This was the result of growing his sales clientele base to more than 1.5x the industry average in two years and subsequently to more than 3x. Ultimately, his revenue was a key component in the company's successful acquisition in 2020 for over $60 million.

At 25, with a decade of work experience and an entrepreneur at heart, Jackman is now the CEO and Founder of Pyvott, a new social media platform.
