This trajectory culminated in a successful exit to Eleven Sports (backed by Aser Ventures), followed by a subsequent exit to DAZN (backed by Access Industries).---Prior Experience: As CEO of Team Whistle, I led our growth and transformation strategy, a role that sat at the intersection of social and streaming platforms, non-live entertainment, live sports, and the creator economy. This involved not only crafting a strategic vision but also driving significant cross border business development initiatives. It also entailed delivering a unique global IP offering to our fan communities, brands, distributors, and league partners, all while ensuring our operations remained efficient and agile enough to adapt to the dynamic ecosystem.Before joining Team Whistle, my career spanned a diverse range of roles and industries. I've had the unique experience of building startups into emerging industry leaders, leading engagements at an Innovation & Strategy consulting firm, originating deals and embedding with portfolio companies in private equity, with a specific focus on Diversified Manufacturing & Industrials. I also specialized in Media & Telecom M&A during my tenure in investment banking, navigating the dynamic landscape of the industry and facilitating successful transactions.I serve as an active board member and vice forum officer of the Young Presidents' Organization (YPO) - Metro NY Chapter. This involvement allows me to stay connected with industry leaders and innovators, further enhancing my ability to lead and innovate in the dynamic world of media & entertainment.
