Abraxas Higgins is a sensation making a splash in the fashion, lifestyle, and social audio space, but his journey into the creative realm was not overnight.

Before becoming a successful content creator, he worked for seven years in the financial sector at the largest global asset management company, BlackRock. Abraxas Higgins managed to climb toward the top starting as an intern and landing a role as a strategist on Wall Street.

Arguably, Abraxas Higgins was at the peak of his game but discontent loomed in the back of his mind because he knew there was far more he wanted to pursue. Higgins believed it was time to make a shift to pursue his lifelong passions. Taking a leap of faith, he quit his well-compensated position and moved to Los Angeles to work as a digital strategist for rapper David Sabastian. In this transition, Abraxas Higgins found his footing and the confidence to branch out into the creative industry.

As he branched out, he became a spectator of fashion and indulged in lifestyle magazines HYPEBEAST and Highsnobiety to stay on top of the latest trends. Higgins has grown to secure lucrative brand deals with British luxury clothing brand Ted Baker, luxury watch brand IWC Schaffhausen, and more. Now, he says he earns more money than he did on Wall Street.
