Joshua Gilman is
Tools & Services

Like a great car, our value should appreciate.

We don’t claim to be young, but we carry a youthful spirit. We work smart, fast, and efficiently with a Kaizen based approach.

Since childhood, Josh has been immersed in automotive culture, making for a seamless transition to nearly two decades of marketing cars with passion and creativity. He is an adjunct professor at the Art Center College of Design and a member of Toastmasters International.

Josh’s notable career achievements include his 10-plus-year tenure working on Toyota brand marketing, being a Levi’s Maker, and writing for the premier watch brand Hodinkee.

Tools & Services is a multifaceted, hands-on creative studio. Being small means we are nimble and must be smart, strategic, and consistent—qualities that give us flexibility in a marketing and cultural landscape that changes daily.
