Client Experience

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Accessibility at 62ABOVE

The leadership team at 62ABOVE has embraced DEIA since before it had a recognizable acronym. Owners and team members celebrate diversity and represent what the real world looks like, including our Hispanic CEO, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and people of color.

62ABOVE is committed to building teams where people of all identities and backgrounds are welcome, supported, and respected.

Beyond this, we strive to ensure that DEIA is considered in every creative idea we generate, and every campaign we produce. We intentionally cast talent from a diverse pool of possibilities, including people of different ethnicities, gender identifications, size, age, and ability. We advise clients to be inclusive in their efforts online, adhering to recommended guidelines for sight and hearing disabled users.

We still have a lot to learn, and we’re excited about the journey toward continual improvement in our understanding and advancement of our values.

Transforming a retail marketing program into a destination marketing program is not a light endeavor.  Cherry Creek North truly appreciates our partnership with 62 Above —  for both the time they’ve taken to learn Colorado and emotional shift they have created within our advertising. We are excited to continue this work into the coming year!
