Starting his entertainment career in talent representation, Adam bootstrapped his own digital agency, 87AM, out of his New York City studio at the peak of the economic crisis. The agency grew rapidly, and in 2011 was acquired by Allied Global Marketing, the leading entertainment, culture and lifestyle marketing agency. Since then, Adam has led all of Allied’s digital capabilities and was named Chief Strategy Officer in 2020, marking Adam as the youngest C-suite executive to hold this title at the company. In his time at Allied, Adam has built world-class teams covering digital media, influencers, social, creative and tech development and has worked with major media companies to develop proprietary technology and data systems. Allied Global Marketing’s clients include almost every major media company around the globe from Netflix, Amazon and Disney to Warner Bros. Discovery, Paramount Global and NBCUniversal. Adam leads the agency’s global strategy, as well as those of his clients.
