About me

Fmr SVP, Business & Legal Affairs at Universal Music Group. Ex-Polygram Entertainment; Fmr Director at Warner Bros. Discovery; Fmr VP at Viacom. Closed major deals for projects involving Noah Kahan, Selena, Paul McCartney, Bob Marley, Bee Gees, and Velvet Underground across Netflix, HBO, Apple, and Amazon. I've spent 32 years in the entertainment business — as a talent agent, a production executive, and a bar admitted attorney. Fmr talent agent turned in-house dealmaker, with experience across production companies, networks, distributors, studios, and music-driven IP. I know what deals look like from every seat at the table. I help creatives, producers, and executives structure better deals, think through rights and risk, and move negotiations forward without unnecessary friction. Things I can advise on: ✔️ How to structure film deals ✔️ Guidance on TV negotiations ✔️ Tips on rights & clearances ✔️ Best practices for talent deals ✔️ Advice on production legal strategy ✔️ How to reduce deal friction ✔️ Guidance on entertainment careers ✔️ Streaming sales ✔️ Documentary deals ✔️ Music rights, licensing, and clearance I'm here because most people navigating this business don't have access to someone who's actually closed these deals. I want to change that.
