Fred Lumiere’s journey as a trainer began at just 19, standing in front of packed classrooms, making Excel and Word easy and exciting. That early passion blossomed into a lifelong adventure of storytelling, training, and translating data into powerful business results.
From crafting global training programs for Duty Free Shops & LVMH around the world, to leading technology at the legendary learning company Hooked on Phonics, Fred has always believed learning should be simple, engaging, and empowering. A storyteller at heart, he later moved to Los Angeles, founded a successful production company, and created Emmy-winning historical documentaries for Discovery, History Channel, and international TV networks—earning prestigious industry awards and opportunities to teach and speak at venues like Harvard University, MAC World, NAB, the Directors Guild of America, the United Nations, and as a co-originator of the groundbreaking RED digital cinema camera.
Today, as CEO of APIANT—a company leading innovation in integration, automation, and AI—Fred merges his unique storytelling talents with deep technical expertise. His engaging, methodical training style simplifies even the most complex HubSpot concepts, enabling anyone to harness powerful automation tools for unprecedented growth. His secret weapon? Fueling HubSpot with timely, relevant data, turning it into a high-performance growth engine capable of driving massive conversions, customer retention, and operational efficiency.
Nothing energizes Fred more than seeing companies experience transformative growth—like APIANT’s fitness clients who, thanks to automation, regularly add new locations month after month. For Fred, the ultimate reward comes from witnessing those unforgettable “aha” moments, empowering learners to elevate their careers and businesses to heights they never imagined possible.
