FULL BIO
My experience includes significant work with media, retail, investors, and consumer goods companies. Prior to business school, I part of team which launched a company called “Car-2-Go” in Tel Aviv, Israel. The company provides green car sharing service (similar to NY-based Zip-Car), with over 600 customers acquired in its first 5 months and is currently closing 2nd round of funding. Prior to that, I worked for Procter & Gamble as a brand manager responsible for four brands. My primary responsibilities were the analysis, valuation, development and execution of marketing campaigns, consumer researches, price strategies and distribution plans. While at P&G, I received recognitions for turn-around management and effective marketing (Global WPP Awards, EFFIE Awards, Eurobest Awards).
Over my career, I was the CEO of an Internet-TV start up, broadcasting live shows over the internet. Later on, I developed a business plan for an interactive commerce TV channel, for which I raised $2M in funding. I have been a reporter for several news websites and am currently the chief editor of the Business School’s new paper.
