About Janrei Villavicencio

Hi, I’m Janrei Villavicencio from sunny Jacksonville, Florida. I’m a proudly Filipino-American, raised by two incredible immigrant parents who taught me early that respect, integrity, and grit can take you wherever you’re willing to put your heart and effort.I’m currently based in Phoenix, Arizona, working with the Phoenix Suns as a Senior Project Manager on the Integrated Marketing team, supporting brand and content efforts across the NBA ecosystem.I’m a brand and content operator with 10+ years of experience across professional sports, consumer technology, and international media. My career began with on-the-ground execution and has grown into roles focused on brand operations, content strategy, and cross-functional leadership. Having worked across the full marketing lifecycle has shaped a practical understanding of what it takes to move ideas from concept to execution in fast-paced, high-visibility environments.A formative chapter of my career was at Carvana, where I worked through early growth and scale. That experience reinforced a builder mindset rooted in ownership, adaptability, and doing what’s needed to deliver.I’m energized by culture-driven brands, thoughtful storytelling, and the unglamorous work behind great moments.Always open to connecting with people who care about building with intention.
