About
Founded by Jackson Van Horn, Vanmoto Media was created to help launch a new generation of entertainers. The name "Vanmoto" comes from Jackson's two last names, "Van Horn" and "Matsumoto". As a Japanese-American, his heritage is always an important part of his identity. The name represents both cultures merged into one. Similar to the combined name, the company Vanmoto hopes to bring people together through media, regardless of their background.
