HI, I'M BRETT!
​
15 years ago I flew from Chicago to LA to interview at The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien. Spoiler: I got the job, and I've been turning followers into fans ever since. I moved to Ireland, and that same passion now fuels my work as Creative Studio Manager at Ryanair, Europe’s largest airline.
Man, what a ride.
Before moving to Ireland, I was a core member of Maker Studios, acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 2014. This exciting new home allowed me to expand my scope even wider. After 5 amazing years at Disney, I was hired by Elisabeth Murdoch to fill the role of VP of Programming and Development at Vertical Networks, a joint venture with Snapchat to create mobile-first premium content. I then entered the world of app development as Chief Content Officer at FlyrTV, where we reshaped digital content creation one swipe at a time.
Growing up in the YouTube community has been life-changing. I had the unique perspective of seeing Maker Studios blossom from 20 of us in an upstairs apartment to 350 employees globally, amassing 10+ billion views per month.
I'm proud of my work in LA and Ireland has amplified it. I'm hungry for the next chapter.
