Jessica is the perfect person to work with both our music partners and our songwriters to navigate these shifts and deepen the strategic relationship between music creators and brands. We’re thrilled to have her on board as we continue to elevate the creative side of our sync business.”
Entner commented, “I’m so excited to be a part of the talented sync team at Warner Chappell and work alongside people who care so deeply about songwriters. As a former WCM writer myself, I know firsthand the current challenges that artists and music creators are facing to diversify their portfolios. There’s a largely untapped opportunity to champion these writers by bringing impactful music solutions to brands and advertisers, and I’m looking forward to the work we’ll do together.”
