I'm an entertainment executive who is passionate about culture, technology and helping artists do what they do best. Whether it's working with tech companies to navigate the entertainment world, producing first-of-their-kind immersive events, or discovering and championing Grammy-nominated recording artists, I have a track record of 15+ years developing and nurturing businesses and bringing those projects to fans and artists in new ways. In 2015 I was included in the Forbes 30 Under 30 Music List.Most recently I was Chief Experience Officer at HIFI, the Financial Rights Organization for the music industry which was acquired by Block in October 2023.Previously, I co-founded Cantora in 2005 in order to put out the first release from MGMT. Over the next 10+ Cantora grew from a "dorm room business" to launching world-renowned artists, producing hundreds of live events and developing leading entertainment technologies.I've helped build other businesses along the way, too. From bringing iconic artists to the stage as talent buyer of Williamsburg venue Brooklyn Bowl to developing tech start ups in what TIME called a "music-culture-cool tech fund", I am at my best when I have the creative freedom to draw from music, art and tech. More recently I helped launch Public Arts, a multi-disciplinary performance venue at Ian Schrager's Public Hotel and the Accelerator for Media Pros with the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment in NYC.
