Guest Lecture: Northampton University’s “Changing Futures” Week

I am pleased to announce that I have been offered the opportunity to guest lecture at Northampton University next month as part of their Changing Futures week to discuss my endeavors in the film and music industry.

Tight competition as Poornima Seetharaman of Zynga is speaking at the same time. Should be fun, I am looking forward to having a chat with the students and hopeful I can give them some ideas to think about. For any students who were present for the lecture and want some clarity, feel free to contact me.

When I looked at the statistics to see what that really meant, it is the sum of 100,000 views and 312,000 minutes of watch time…
