Our
Origin Story
In 2011, Van Horgen set out to create an agency that put diversity and inclusion first and offered a work-life balance that serves modern families. As a women- and minority-owned business, we take pride in having staff that is almost 15% BIPOC and a leadership team that is over 50% women. We don’t pretend to have everything figured out, but we’re devoted to having nuanced, hard conversations while upholding our motto: “Believe in people.”
Extra Grind:
Free Classes
for All
The cost of access is a major barrier to entering the advertising world. To open that door, Van created a free advertising school called Extra Grind. Over 10 years later, we’ve hired multiple Extra Grind alums and continue to serve learners all over the world.
Our Values
We created our core values together. They aren’t vague aspirations for who we could be, but a reflection of who we are at our best.
-
Wonder Why
Everyone at Superhuman is deeply curious about, well, basically everything. It’s how we learn about new, complex industries every day.
-
Play is Serious Business
Nothing is too precious here. A sense of play and absurdity help us think big picture and explore wild new ideas.
-
Say Yes to the Mess
Progress is often a circle instead of a straight line. We welcome ambiguity if it means finding an exciting new way to approach an old problem.
-
Be Really, Really Real
We aren’t in search of people with a cool creative gimmick or the right work wardrobe. We’re fine being a band of passionate weirdos that isn’t afraid to affectionately spar about topics as a way to build understanding.
-
Quality Over Coolity
Everyone at Superhuman is an expert in their craft, and can talk at length about the nuances of what they do. It’s this passion that we aim to cultivate and offer to our clients.
