James

James Green joined search retargeting leader Magnetic in October 2011 after returning from fulfilling his childhood dream of taking a year off and to go sailing. In May 2009, James purchased Ondine, a 55ft sailing Catamaran.

With his family (wife and two kids) in tow, James boarded Ondine and set sail for the Caribbean. He later crossed the Atlantic Ocean and spent the summer of 2011 in the Aegean Sea visiting places like Spain, Portugal, Gilbraltar, Italy & Greece. His trip is documented here: www.SailingOndine.com.

Although James was an extrodinary sailing captain, he’s also lead many companies across other unchartered territory: the digital waters. James began his career in the entertainment industry with The Walt Disney Company, then later joined Pixar Animation Studios where he worked for Steve Jobs. After that, James went on to lead multiple companies in the digital advertising industry including Sabela Media, 24/7 Real Media, GiantBear, PVI,  Giant Realm, and Burst Media.
