ABOUT ME I got my start as an entrepreneur in the entertainment industry in 1994 when I co-founded Brick Wall Management, a music management company, with my partner Michael Solomon. I helped shape the careers of musicians like John Mayer, Citizen Cope, & Vanessa Carlton. In 2012, I founded 10x Management with Michael to create the world’s first tech talent agency. In 2018, Michael and I founded 10x Ascend the world\'s first-of-its-kind senior tech talent compensation negotiation service. In 2020 Harper Collins published our book Game Changer: How to be 10x in the Talent Economy. Watch my TEDx Presentation in the section below - Great talent deserves great representation.
