Meet Brian Palmer, our new Sr. Account Executive!

Today we give a warm welcome to our latest member of the iWL family: Brian Palmer!

Brian was born and raised in Utah.  He grew up in West Jordan until he was 13 years old when his parents uprooted them all to South Jordan.

Brian is youngest of five; three older brothers and one older sister. All four of his siblings and parents still live in Utah and all within 40 minutes of one another.  He loves spending time with them when he can.

He graduated from Bingham High School, and shortly after graduating, the next three years he took on the role of store manager and area manager at Journeys Retail Shoes here in Utah, as well as in Nevada.

After 3+ years in the glitz and glamour of the Nevada Desert, Brian moved home to attend Salt Lake Community College for 2 years, to receive an Associates Degree in Criminal Justice.

After receiving his degree, Brian continued to work with Journeys for a few more years until receiving a promotion to the Genesco Corporate Offices, based in Nashville, Tennessee, to be an Operations Project Coordinator.  Although Brian loves Tennessee, the South and his job, his family was in Utah.  After 5+ years in the Volunteer State, Brian decided to return home to the Beehive State.  Genesco created a Loss Prevention Manager position based in Utah so he could continue to work for them as well as to be closer to his daughter Sayuri.

Shortly after returning to Utah, Brian met the most amazing woman he had ever encountered. Luckily, Brian was able to convince Emma to be his wife and were recently married in May of 2013.

In Brian’s last position, he travelled every week, leaving Monday and returning Thursday or Friday, as a Loss Prevention Manager. The travel got wearing, and he wanted to be home more and expand his knowledge while utilizing skills he already had. Brian was referred to inWhatLanguage through his brother-in-law, and immediately after his first meeting with iWL CEO Cody Broderick, Brian was enticed by the culture and goals he had – and not only by the company, but also by its employees and clients. Brian is pumped to begin and looks forward to his future with inWhatLanguage.

With this new position locally, Brian is also looking forward to spending more time with his wife, daughter, and get back into CrossFit and mountain biking.

We are excited to have you with us, Brian! Welcome!!
