About me
|
I keep busy running a branded content company, [L]earned Media and my tech startup, Wendr.
I also spend part of my day as Chief Marketing Officer of my twin brother's (Ben) tech startup, RetailMLS + RetailReport.
I used to work at OgilvyEntertainment and before that I was one of the first 10 team members at Big Fuel.
My brother Aaron, the corporate finance lawyer, proof reads lots of my work and my sister Natalie is the coolest Zises of all.
After work and family (but not in that order), I like to give back. I founded and chair the Birthright Israel Alumni Council, I'm on the UJA-Federation Young Entertainment Executive Committee and I'm a member of the Northeastern NY Alumni Chapter.
When I'm not busy with that other stuff, I'm probably on my couch in free cities watching movies and sports or playing hockey on Sunday mornings.
