Meet Jejuan Smith of JsProductionsGroup in Hollywood

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jejuan Smith.

Jejuan, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
I’m originally from Winston Salem, North Carolina. I was an Athlete lettering in two sports, football and Basketball Varsity. I began modeling at the age of 16, selling shirts during school but also branding myself through music and fashion. I gained a passion for being able to be creative all the way to college in which I received a football scholarship and later years offers from other basketball college programs. Over the years, I did music videos but had a hard time moving forward until I became an extra on a tv show. I used that day to my advantage by being professional but also networking and finding out how I can grow my job title in a second. I am here today still pushing my goals and dreams, even though I’ve accomplished goals I’ve set, there are always much much more to set for yourself.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Definitely not, lol In Los Angeles, yet alone America you have to develop and or have a mentality that you have to be a leader, go-getter. With that said struggles are necessary in sharpening yourself to prepare for the world.

We’d love to hear more about your work and what you are currently focused on. What else should we know?
I am a producer, writer, & also filmmaker. I create opportunity, connect others & create content. I am most proud of going against a lot of odds, still have courage to take on those challenges. My work ethic, I don’t take it lightly. I truly think I can do anything and nothing in the world you can’t have.

What moment in your career do you look back most fondly on?
Landing a chance to talk on TV, I always said I would have. Then second would have to be becoming an owner.
