After ten years working in the administration, box office and road crew sides of the live entertainment industry, I made the leap to the online world in and joined the small crew that launched a new website called Ticketmaster.com. From there, I founded and launched LiveDaily.com, which lived under the TicketmasterLive Nation umbrella for years. For a few years in the late 's and early 's, I headed up a product team at Citysearch that developed and launched the company's user profiles and reviews product. I'm a digital builder, able to attack one-off projects, tune existing production workflows and build platforms with an eye toward minimizing cost and time and maximizing reach and integration. Content systems, product development and consumer content production have been my expertise for nearly twenty years, and as a result, I can speak coder, marketer, manager, talent buyer, reader and editor with ease. I'm a natural team builder in that regard. Specialties Digital content development, social media strategy and execution, CMS development, marketing strategy and tactical rollout, content integration and project execution. Named in and again in to the "Billboard Magazine Twitter " as one of Billboard Magazine's " Music-Industry Characters You Need To Follow."
