Brett Player has 20 years of experience in brand communications. His agency, PLAY, Inc., has helped create and launch consumer brands like Spanx and Assets, re-imaged looks for Zoo Atlanta and Pace Academy, enhanced perception in higher education institutions like Clemson and University of Miami and launched national ad campaigns for BMG music and Freshlook Color Contact Lenses.

In addition to more than 50 industry awards, Brett and his agency PLAY have been honored in the 2020 and 2021 Seminole 100, which annually celebrates the fastest-growing FSU alumni-owned or alumni-led businesses.

Player graduated from FSU in the early 90’s with a degree in Studio Art. He loves giving back to the University by being on the FSU College of Fine Arts Dean’s Advisory Board; chairing the Development Committee, helping with marketing initiatives and other council activities. Player also serves as an Adjunct Professor at the Miami Ad School and Furman University. On his off time, Player can be found with his wife Caroline and their Boykin Spaniel, Buddy, enjoying the outdoors by roaming the mountains in their RV, hiking, fly fishing or shooting sporting clays… Unless it’s fall, and then the Players will be watching college football, rooting for the ‘Noles!
