We had the good fortune of connecting with Steven D. Jackson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Steven D., why did you pursue a creative career?
I am a natural born creative with an active imagination. Various art forms of music, poetry, visual mediums, and writing outlets throughout my life, have molded me to the creative I am today. It is my ultimate form of self expression and relating to the world.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Most people know me as “Alien” not only because of my brand, but my higher intelligence and creative mind. Mixing education and entertainment together to enlighten those around me or experience my body of work. I am most proud of how my art and talents connected me to many great and impactful individuals in and outside of my industry. Was it easy, no and still not, but consistency and setting goals are key. Having an accountability partner is helpful too. Finding your flow and what works for you will be benefitable.

I want the world to know you can always be yourself. Me personally and my brand speaks much on self love, hence
“Alien Affirmations 123” which are affirmations starting off with “I love myself” and ending with it as well. You can be creative as can be if you let your mind run wild and free. Invest in your growth and knowledge to help you excel. I have done that and still am. Always grow!

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to shout out LaunchArts Media for being my production partners and helping me with me media growth. Another shout out is to my entire entrepreneur elevation group, The Pull Up Experience (you will hear from in the near future) for our community and connections through our entrepreneur podcast and live events.
