I'm currently Executive Chairman of Mixed Dimensions, A 3D Printing Co. with unique technology.. I also serve on the boards of, StoryWorld, WCEPS, Adjunct Professor Link, The Strong Museum, and Stiched Insights, where I’m also an investor. Plus I'm a Venture Partner at Alsop-Louie.

As the former CEO of LeapFrog, Knowledge Universe, Sega, Matchbox, and Mattel, I've had the opportunity to work in two Fortune 500 Companies with wonderful people in building some of the best known brands for kids and teens (Barbie, Hot Wheels, See N Say, Masters of the Universe, Matchbox, Sega Genesis, Sonic the Hedgehog, LeapFrog, etc). I believe in hiring the best people, having a common vision, developing strategies others can't easily copy, defeating competition, and growing a business rapidly . A best selling Book, Console Wars, was written about my time as CEO of Sega of America, & a Documentary Film about it is available on CBS All Access/ Paramount prime.

I was on the board of Cambium Learning (NASDAQ: ABCD) a company that has curriculum for children K-12, and which also helps turn-around troubled schools, we sold the company in 2018. And on board of Blackboard , the largest LMS before we sold it.

I'm very interested in using on-line technology, combined with great education pedagogy, creating fun experiences so children are engaged and thus learn enjoyably and faster.
