Jason Holzman- Creative and Strategy Leader

About

I'm a writer, creative director, and team leader with more than 30 years of experience across advertising, media, entertainment, storytelling, and retail.

I spent nearly 17 years in creative leadership roles at NBCUniversal, where I led teams at USA Network and SYFY (launching shows like Suits and Mr. Robot), and built the creative organization that launched Peacock, NBCUniversal's streaming service (managing creative, design, and operations for the platform's original series like Traitors and Poker Face, sports including MLB and the Olympics, and news). Most recently, I was SVP, Creative, Production & Brand Strategy at Macy's, where I led a team of 300 creators, strategists, and operations specialists.

Throughout my career, I've built and managed large, diverse teams whose work has won industry recognition from The One Show, the Clio Awards, the Cannes International Festival of Creativity, and Promax among others.

I'm a graduate of Harvard College with a degree in English and American Literature, and a member of both the Screen Actors Guild and the Television Academy.
