Before starting PHOND in 2020, Tremaine freelanced in brand development and marketing for small to medium sized brands. Harnessing his love for authentic storytelling and keen intuition he has grown a reputation of having the golden touch, where he has helped his clients generate more than $300k in revenue. In 2016 Tremaine became the brand manager for Juice Bar 80/20 where he grew the brand from 2 to 6 locations in 8 months. Along his creative journey he has partnered with brands like Bevel, Homes.com, Sauer Brands, American Eagle and ActBlue.

Being from Virginia Beach, VA, there isn't much local support or investment in the creative community. Tremaine realized that just as his hometown, there were thousands of other towns that were unseen and unheard. PHOND was started a media platform aimed to establish vertically integrated creative communities around the world and assist in cultivating sustainable careers for creatives of all disciplines. Tremaine hopes that PHOND grows into an ecosystem where creativity, ideas and innovation are the driving force in the modern world.
