\"\"I accomplished many of the things that I wanted to accomplish during my career in the record business, but admittedly not everything. I held executive positions at Live Nation, J Records, Bad Boy and Motown, working with Stevie Wonder, Luther, Bebe & Cece, Alicia Keys, Sean Diddy Combs, Mary J Blige, Snoop, Enimem and so many others.\u00a0 My last record label position was EVP Urban Music, Interscope.<\/p>\n

After leaving Interscope, I transitioned into management. I had the\u00a0opportunity to work with Simon Renshaw and Irving Azoff, two of the best managers in the history of the music\u00a0business. I did some consulting of production companies and I also worked with some tech start-ups.\u00a0\u00a0Today, I am the Chief Growth officer (CGO) of Quantasy, a full service digital marketing agency.<\/p>\n

And also, because of what can be described as a full circle moment, I am now the producer of a Broadway-bound musical entitled \u201cBorn For This\u201d, created by BeBe Winans and director Charles Randolph-Wright (Motown the Musical).\u00a0 Quantasy\u00a0 – \u00a0quantasy.com<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Born For This – \u00a0bit.ly\/BFTBoston<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
