Ross Martin is the CEO of 📝Blackbird and a general partner at 📝Lunch Partners. A Brooklyn-based media executive and 🏷️#entrepreneur, he operates at the intersection of brand work, content production, and venture investing.
Martin describes himself as "a sneaker-obsessed, word-loving, wine-collecting, trouble-making Brooklynite in it for the happiness of pursuit." The self-portrait scans as a fair reading of how he shows up: appetite for projects without clean category labels, a craft sensibility for both language and product, and a temperament that runs warmer than the typical corporate-CEO register.
I was introduced to Ross by 📝Colleen Aylward in October 2018.
