Prior to that, he worked at NBCUniversal in a progression of sales leadership roles for both legacy and advanced marketplace properties including NBCU Hispanic/Telemundo Media, NBC News, and Audience Studio, the first-mover application of data-driven advanced audience sales of TV/premium video including optimized national linear TV, addressable VOD and OTT, programmatic TV initiative, and programmatic digital, most recently serving as Executive Vice President, Advertising Sales.

Commenting on the new addition to the team, NCM Senior Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer Scott Felenstein said, “As U.S. movie theaters reopen their doors and gear up for the first blockbuster of the fall season – Christopher Nolan’s Tenet – NCM is working to re-connect brands with the magic of movies on the big screen as young, cord-cutting movie fans grow tired of at-home streaming options. I am thrilled that Mike is joining the team, as his media knowledge, stellar reputation and client relationships are unmatched in the industry. He brings a fresh new perspective to NCM that will help our ad partners find new ways to reach movie audiences anytime and anywhere with our Noovie big screen pre-show and digital products. And, I know Mike is as excited to get back to the movies as I am!”
