About

Born in a small city in a small country,
I feel lucky to make a living off big ideas.

Ideas that have taken many shapes and sizes.

Like the first real VS virtual tennis match, pitting John McEnroe against his toughest opponent: himself.
Premiering in 52 countries with more views than the NBA finals.

Or a man falling in love with a sport he can’t even see. Only to commentate it for the world. 
In a 3.5 hour live television broadcast.

Or the entire reinvention of the NBA viewing experience. That brought out everyone from Lil Wayne to President Obama.

Over the years, these efforts have helped a beer brand shatter sales, going from #5 to #1 in the country. Won awards from EMMYs to Cannes Lions Grand Prix. And couldn’t have been possible without the collaboration of some of the best people in the world.
