Creative Executive. Product Leader. World Builder.
Tarus D. Stills is a creative executive, product leader, filmmaker, and world builder whose career sits at the intersection of technology, media, storytelling, and audience experience.
Across his corporate career, Tarus has led product and creative work spanning streaming media, sports technology, educational technology, and interactive entertainment. His experience includes senior product and design leadership across organizations such as HBCU GO, Amira Learning, Genius Sports, and his own media technology ventures—building platforms and experiences used by students, educators, audiences, and brands.
What connects that work is a belief that the best products do more than function well—they create an experience people remember.
Today, Tarus is applying that philosophy to original intellectual property as the creator, writer, and illustrator of Caiden’s Courage, a children’s story world expanding across graphic novels, interactive learning experiences, games, media, and education.
His work blends the strategic discipline of product leadership with the imagination of a creative director: developing the vision, shaping the story, designing the experience, and building the systems that allow an idea to grow into a world.
Tarus is particularly interested in the future of children’s media, interactive storytelling, creative technology, neuroinclusive experiences, and the ways entertainment can inspire curiosity, confidence, and learning.
