Mickie Rosen has always had love for Yahoo! even when she was working for the competition! The SVP of the Yahoo! Media Network was first exposed to Yahoo! via her previous work experience in digital media. “I have been an outsider looking into Yahoo!, competing with Yahoo!, negotiating with Yahoo! for years, and I’ve had nothing but admiration for the company.” Mickie says. When she was extended an offer to join Yahoo! she jumped on it. She now works with leading media properties such as Yahoo! Finance and Yahoo! Sports and News, focusing on the content strategy, programming and cultivating Yahoo!’s “voice.”
