Ars longa, vita brevis

rocket/rock it
I’m sad to announce that I will be leaving the X PRIZE Foundation, but extremely pleased to say that I will be taking the role of Community Director, New Media, at Warner Bros. Records.

For some time now, I have been wanting to move back to pursuing my passion of music. This job, then, is something of a godsend: it combines my love of music with my background in online communities. I cannot express how exciting this possibility is, an opportunity to really dig in to changing the way that artists and fans interact.

I’d like to send a special personal thank you to everyone at the X PRIZE Foundation who has made my past year and a half amazing. You are the lifeblood of this organization, and without you, the wheels would fall off. Keep on fighting the good fight.

And a huge thank you to everyone who helped me along the way. You are not the shoulders of giants. You are rockets under my feet.

Rock and roll :)
