Bio

I am an entrepreneurial media executive with a broad skill set including content and advertising strategy, operations, finance, investments / M&A, and restructuring. I have held senior executive positions at leading media companies, as well as early and growth stage start-ups, with two successful exits and many successful (and some not) investments. Prior to Roku, I developed and executed the strategy for Comcast’s advanced advertising group to become the industry leading solution for premium video content, supporting billions of dollars in advertising at programmers and MVPDs. I was a frequent speaker at industry conferences and events, and was also selected to MCN’s 40 under 40 list in 2015. Within Comcast, I mentored extensively and supported numerous internal training and diversity initiatives as a sponsor, speaker, and mentor. I joined Comcast from NBCUniversal, where I helped lead the Corporate Strategy group and ran projects across the broadcast and cable networks, advertising, digital and the film studio. Prior to NBCUniversal, I held a range of roles with the successful technology start-ups BNI Video (acquired by Cisco) and VUDU (acquired by Wal*Mart). Earlier in my career, I ran Corporate Development for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) Studios and was an investment professional with Goldman Sachs and TPG Capital. I earned an MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business as an Arjay Miller Scholar, and a BA from Princeton University.
