Josh Krakauer

Josh Krakauer is the founder and CEO of Sculpt, but you already knew that.

(You might not know he’s a former breakdancer with a background in drag racing, but that’s another story.)

Josh started Sculpt with a mission to help the brands in his backyard modernize their marketing. 12 years and 200+ clients later, Sculpt has developed social media strategies and campaigns for Fortune 500s, hyper-growth startups, best-selling business books, and the biggest names in B2B.

His team serves all of the credit.

As CEO, Josh champions a “Hustle & Heart” culture—a pursuit of growth while putting humans first.

A community builder at heart, Josh loves connecting people passionate about their ideas. Josh has spent years mentoring startups at accelerators like Techstars, and supporting events like Startup Weekend and Startup Games. He also sat on the advisory board of the John Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Center for 8 years.

Josh has spoken all over the country about lessons he’s learned helping brands “win the internet”, though he never does the same talk twice.

Josh (and Blue) work from Washington, D.C.
