Teeg Stouffer is a storyteller and filmmaker. His business, Fascination Film Studio, tells the fascinating stories of ordinary people who shaped the world around us. But he's a husband and father, Christ-follower, outdoorsman - and has done a lot of things in his career as he's pursued his passion. It could be said that he's made most of his living in media, marketing & events, but he'd say he's a "multi-potentialite." He's been - most recently - a fishing lure salesman; he's worked for the Department of Homeland Security; he's founded a few for-profit companies and a couple of non-profit companies. He's been involved in real estate (and lost a lot of money that way) and he's been involved in famous events that people have heard of. He led the #1 retail grand opening team in the US, which had some of the biggest, splashiest grand openings in America over the past 10 years. He's been the voice of Mountain Dew and has been on staff at a church. My kind of guy!
