Draft:The 3rd Eye Agency

The 3rd Eye Agency, formerly VS/Brooks, was co-founded by Vivian Santos and Diana Brooks, in Miami, Florida in 1996.

When operating as VS/Brooks, headquartered in Miami, the agency focused clients with audiences in Hispanic communities with launches and campaigns for Humana, CarePlus Health Plans, Cleveland Clinic, and CuraLeaf.

After 24 years of representing healthcare brands, co-founder and Chief Operating Officer Vivian Santos retired and ownership was transferred to Diana Brooks. Upon this restructuring, the agency went through a rebrand and became THE 3RD EYE Agency in January of 2022.

Health & Wellness Research
In 2023, THE 3RD EYE Agency released a health & wellness white paper based on research performed in tandem with Deft Research to poll more than 1,400 people. Titled Defining Health & Wellness, and The Barriers to Change, it included results from said poll concerning behaviors of diverse consumers in health and wellness to understand which barriers consumers face.

Key Findings
Health & Wellness study finds that "Women Understand Men's Health Issues, But Not Vice Versa."

Young healthcare consumers under the age of 45 want different things from older generations — "such as an increased focus on preventive health, and more attention to mental health."

The concept of wellness varies by ethnicity, "with white consumers prioritizing physical and emotional health as wellness while Black consumers are more likely to consider spiritual health as wellness."
