What has been your proudest career accomplishment to date?
Spearheading the marketing and communications strategies to support the launch of IMAX’s next-generation laser technology, which marked the largest R&D investment in the Company’s history. The new technology debuted to rave reviews during the world premiere of Furious 7 in Los Angeles and has since been installed in IMAX’s most iconic locations around the world.
What’s the best piece of advice you can give to future 40 under 40 honorees?

What do you hope to accomplish in the next 5 years?
Help successfully transition IMAX from being a cinema technology brand to becoming a lifestyle brand that brings your favorite entertainment experiences to life.
What is one interesting fact about you that few people know?
I lived and worked abroad for two years in Prague.
