Plan II Honors
Class of 2008
Director of Business Development, TSEG at Cloud [8] Sixteen, Inc

My name is Koby Ackie. I'm currently the Director of Business Development for a small digital marketing agency that markets for law firms all over the country. In addition, I also own a small real estate investment firm that owns and manages a few properties in Central Texas. When I'm not working, I enjoy traveling to various parts of the world, journaling, listening to music, and connecting with good friends. 

Plan II has been instrumental in both my personal and professional life. I met my wife while in the program; she is also a Plan II graduate. We have enjoyed an almost decade-long relationship that continues to grow every day. Professionally, Plan II has contributed to my "unconventional" way of doing business, which allows me to approach incredibly challenging problems from very different perspectives. In doing so, I present ideas and solutions to my clients that may seem a bit out of the ordinary at first but give them a competitive edge in an environment where clutter, distraction, and mimicry are very commonplace.
