He led raises of $8.5M in private equity financing and delivered 300+% annual sales growth for diverse businesses in the media, technology and telecom sectors. He has 24 years of senior management effectiveness in Strategic Planning, Operations and IT/Communications management at News Corp and Harper Collins, among others. At News Corp., he was responsible for media technology applications and was instrumental in key acquisitions and product development at Etak, Delphi Internet Services and News Electronic Data. He is a graduate of Mercy College with a degree in Industrial Psychology.
