As Chief Revenue Officer, he oversees global revenue strategy and operations, helping premium publishers and broadcasters monetize their inventory programmatically across connected TV, mobile, and display channels. His leadership has been central to Magnite's positioning as the dominant independent SSP in a market increasingly defined by streaming and CTV growth.

Prior to the Magnite merger, he held senior leadership roles at Rubicon Project, where he was responsible for scaling revenue teams and cultivating strategic publisher relationships.
