Employee Spotlight: Josh Campbell

At Blue Ion, we realize that our work is a reflection of who we are as individuals and our success is a direct result of all the different personalities, talents, duck hunting life experiences, and weird senses of humor that each of our employees brings to the table. This diverse group of good ol’ boys dedicated employees is what makes Blue Ion so freaking awesome.  To celebrate these differences, we’re going to be highlighting one employee every week (except last week, because I was on vacation) so you can get to know us a little better and learn what makes us tick. This week’s Employee Spotlight is:

A special effects artist. I’ve watched F/X and F/X 2 multiple times.

I’ve had Haggis, strange yes but delicious.

Animal-keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities and healing factors with implated adamantium bones, essentially, Wolverine, but not like that silly bitch Hugh Jackman, the drawn one by McFarlane…Todd McFarlane.
