Linslow Industries
I run a small consulting practice focused on media and entertainment. The name comes from my middle name and my wife's. It felt right to name something after us.
I spent 20 years building content partnerships at companies like Meta, Yahoo, and a startup I co-founded. Now I help creative companies, platforms, and investors figure out the business side of content.
Most engagements start with a question someone can't quite answer with the data they have, or a deal they need a second brain on.
Career Arc

Head of Business Development. The role moved through Business Affairs, commercial negotiation, and creator deal-making. Left when it was time.
New Form (2014-2019)
Co-founded a digital entertainment studio. Ron Howard and Brian Grazer on the board. Raised Series A and B. Sold.
Yahoo (2006-2014)
Various roles in content partnerships during the platform's long decline. Learned how big companies make decisions (slowly) and how deals actually get done.
