ARM CEO Named to Alaska Journal of Commerce Top Forty Under 40

The Alaska Journal of Commerce released its annual Top Forty Under 40 list in spring of 2021, celebrating some of the state’s most accomplished young professionals. Topping that list was ARM Creative’s cofounder and CEO: Zach Aregood.

Being the 3rd youngest recipient on this year’s list is a testament to Aregood’s drive and ambition: key values ARM was built on.

The selection committee was made up of Elevate Alaska President Kea Cuaresma; Peak 2 Peak Alaska Vice President Sarah Boice; Anchorage Daily News Advertising Director Brandi Nelson; Alaska Journal of Commerce Sales Manager Jada Nowling; and Alaska Journal of Commerce Managing Editor Andrew Jensen. Sifting through 114 nominees and 750 pages of supporting documentation, the selection committee ranked each individual on a scale from 1 to 5 and the best 40 scores made up the 2021 class.

On the most fulfilling project of his professional life, Zach told the Journal of Commerce this:

“Founding and building my creative agency has been the most fulfilling, challenging, and fun project of my career to date. Building this company has allowed me to test ideas, collaborate, work with amazing creatives and professionals, and bring a product and service to the market which was not offered before.”
