My talent for innovative thinking is combined with practical business understanding and media property culture, enabling me to create impactful solutions.I've spearheaded video technology, programming, and content distribution that form today's digital frontier. This includes the leading predictive analytic TV advertising service, the first cable, direct-to-home, hospitality on-demand, and IPTV networks, the first North American OTT satellite service, and the first retail and condition-specific point-of-care digital signage networks.I possess the capabilities and skills to build competitive advantages in transformative media platforms, content development, distribution, and monetization, start-up/product launches and ongoing operations, advanced television advertising media, brand positioning, content acquisition, and functional executive leadership.
