Mixxer

• Wireless Services

• Director of Business Development

  • Jan 2006 - Dec 2007

  Post acquisition, Mixxer was the new brand of 3GUpload (below). I ran the original 40+ team from the Indianapolis office before moving to the new Seattle headquarters. From Seattle, I helped run product, business development, our music licensing effort, legal and DMCA compliance, and contracts/relationships with any 3rd parties. Our company made big bets, knowing that social networking would be bigger on the mobile phone than even on the web. Post acquisition, Mixxer was the new brand of 3GUpload (below).
