Today we’d like to introduce you to Ivan Jose Cloyd.
Hi Ivan Jose, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
I began my journey in television at the age of 17 or 18, advocating for policy changes within my community in Washington, DC. As I grew more comfortable in front of the camera, I started exploring opportunities in acting. This led to appearances on several TV shows, and eventually, I had the opportunity to be a guest on the syndicated television program “The Right Side Forum” with Armstrong Williams.
These experiences have culminated in my latest endeavor: launching a new TV network highlighting hyperlocal content. My goal is to create high-quality content that unites viewers across the country. So I am very fortunate to be able to provide service in the East and West Coast.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Navigating the path to success is rarely smooth, and I’ve faced my share of struggles along the way. Initially, I didn’t fully grasp my craft, having to invest countless hours sometimes close to the proverbial 10,000 to hone my skills. Understanding the market wasn’t immediate either, nor was a deep understanding of myself. Often, it felt like I was still searching for my unique edge or “it” factor.
All these missing pieces at various points in my journey created numerous bumps in the road. However, each challenge became a stepping stone, guiding me towards growth and eventually leading me to where I am today. Through perseverance and learning, I’ve come to appreciate the value of these experiences in shaping my path.

What makes you happy?
My daughter Kiyah brings me immense happiness. She has always been the driving force behind my ambitions, and watching her grow up has been an absolute delight. Having grown up without a father, I was determined to be as present as possible in her life. Seeing her excel today as both a scholar and an athlete fills me with true joy.
