“Having Nathan join our team in this vital position is a fundamental next step in investing in our company’s goals and objectives for the future,” said Crist Myers, Founder and CEO of Myers. “His diverse background and extensive knowledge in media will serve as key attributes in driving our company forward and helping to strengthen our position in market. I am truly enthusiastic to have him on board.”

McCarthy is a graduate of the City College of New York where he earned his Bachelor of Arts in Media and Communications.

“Although television is still a primary component of the media advertising mix, the emergence of additional revenue streams has necessitated the adoption of new technologies to manage inventory. This in itself presents both a challenge and opportunity in the industry and one I am very much looking forward to joining Myers in helping build solutions that pave the way for capitalizing on more efficient and advanced advertising workflows,” added McCarthy.
