AOA

Thank you to our dedicated team for 15 awesome years. Our company and our culture would be nothing without you. Your warmth, camaraderie, care, and optimism makes us family. We owe our success to every person who has given their precious time and incredible talent to our organization. We’ll be celebrating our big 15 over the next few weeks, revealing who we are, both past and future. From all of us at AOA, here’s to another 15 more! #DreamCreateBuild #InsideAOA #AOA15 #Culture #Design #Production #ProjectManagement

We took our experiential creativity UP to the next level for this one…💥 ➡️ Can you make an iconic superhero mansion come to life (...and can we move in)? Yes. ➡️ Can you build an Airbnb that’s also a tour bus for one of the hottest Colombian artists? Absolutely. ➡️ Can you make a house float? Sure, just another Tuesday. ➡️ Can you turn creativity Inside Out (2), make it (Purple) Rain, with Hart? All of the above. 📣📣📣 We can *finally* share one of our best-kept secrets to date — Airbnb Icons. Creative experiences have never been done like this before. So, of course, we went there. We’re Verb. Bringing first-of-its kind creative ideas to life with visionary brand partners like Airbnb is what we do. Speaking of icons and superheroes — shout out to our entire team Verb, and our partners including AOA, Bednark Studio, Produce XM, PBZ LLC, Claudia Steer, Tractor Vision , who make the impossible possible daily. We did it! 🚀🚀🚀 (If you want to do something iconic, you know where to find us.)

Thank you for spending some time with us, Matt Ouimet! We appreciate your unique leadership perspective and remarkable ability to bring up all the right topics for discussion. The context of your own experiences and learned lessons really helped us understand your words of wisdom. A few quotes we really soaked up: "It's not about what you want to be, but why you want to be it." "Motivate and encourage accomplishments and the leadership will follow." "Leaders must be good listeners and have the courage to change their mind when it's needed." "Everyone on a hard working team simply wants to be respected, valued and appreciated." #DreamCreateBuild #InsideAOA #Leadership #Culture #Teamwork #Respect #Transparency

The more complex and complicated our projects are, the more dynamic the project leader must be. Senior Project Manager Mary Alarcon is among the best of the best at tackling massive, multifaceted projects with immense skill and talent. In her 11 years with AOA, Mary has led restaurant refurbishments 🍽️, new construction of immersive dining experiences 🚧, and even a 9,300-square-foot digital media screen 🖥️. Get to know Mary and learn more about her project work below! #DreamCreateBuild #InsideAOA #ProjectManagement #Restaurants #ThemedEntertainment #Technology 

Each and every day, we are encouraged by the hope we see around us, and this is especially true on Earth Day. 🌎 🌍 🌏 From conservation, youth movements, and regenerative agriculture, to animal conservation, ocean clean-up, and marine life research, there is exceptional work being done in our home state of Florida and beyond! 🌳 🌊 ☀ Every little bit of support matters, so anything you can offer to these amazing teams of folks who are cleaning our oceans, rescuing our animals, and protecting our planet’s health and survival will ensure a better tomorrow for us all.

The Dr. Jane's Dream project is a team effort, like all projects are. However, it is even more so in this case because of the amazing group of creative leaders who jumped on board. Joe Rohde was asked by Dr. Jane Goodall to help, and he assembled a stellar team to support Jane and her mission. That team included Melody Malmberg, Chris Kelly, Morgan Richardson, Denise Imhoff, Lisa Girolami, Kate Doty, Rick Barongi, Jennifer Gerstin, and our AOA folks, partnering with Jane’s team of Mary Lewis, Susana Name, Saifudin Khanbhai, and John Kraft. Working with Joe and this team has been a pleasure and we are looking forward to the completion of the project in 2025. Congratulations to all involved!

We’re happy to give support to the West Orange Habitat For Humanity. They do incredible work for our community and provide a crucial service to those in need. Plus, it gives us an opportunity to take off our superintendent badges, use our hands and tools, and put in some good, honest work for our neighbors. Thank you to our friends at Maddox Electric Company, Inc. for their continued partnership and to our partners at West Orange Habitat for Humanity for hosting our team and giving us a chance to help out! 🍊🏠 To learn more about how you can volunteer, please visit: https://lnkd.in/e9SFjct3 #DreamCreateBuild #InsideAOA #HabitatForHumanity

Today we’re celebrating our dear friend and role model Dr. Jane Goodall on her 90th birthday! Small acts of goodness can make a massive difference on your community, your workplace, and the world around you. Thank you Jane for continually being a pillar of hope for us all. @janegoodallinst #DreamCreateBuild #InsideAOA #GoodAllDay #JaneAt90 #TakeBoldAction #JaneGoodallInstitute

Today, we’re highlighting a truly extraordinary organization! The Center for Great Apes is full of orangutans and chimpanzees with truly miraculous stories. Among them is Sandra, the first orangutan in the world to receive legal “non-human personhood” status. She is but one of nearly 70 great apes who have been rescued from captivity by the Center. 🦧   Patti Ragan, the sanctuary’s founding director, has worked diligently over the last 30 years with one mission: rescue great apes from captivity and end the practice of keeping them as exotic pets and entertainers. A dear friend and a truly admirable force for good, Patti, her staff, and the youngest of their remarkable apes were all recently featured in Flamingo Magazine. 🌱 Read their article and learn how you can support their indelible cause: https://lnkd.in/dSWDV5_E 📸 Image Credits: Center for Great Apes; Flamingo Magazine   #DreamCreateBuild #InsideAOA #CenterForGreatApes
