"During my time as the President of HBO Enterprises I had the treat of working with Aunree for more than 10 years. During that time, he was one of the most thoughtful, charismatic, dedicated and innovative executives in our department. He grew from an entry level role into a leader, mentor and company ambassador. One of the things I miss most about leaving HBO is not seeing Aunree in action everyday and wondering if there would ever be a day when I dressed better than he did." Charles Schreger Television and Film Distribution Consultant Former President, HBO Enterprises/Program Distribution |
"Aunree’s outstanding track record in marketing and communication in his creative director roles and his reputation for operating excellence is equally matched by his leadership and his generosity in mentoring young minds. During this summer when the pandemic was keeping students indoors, Aunree joined me and my dedicated group of alumni and faculty to deliver coaching and mentorship to incoming and enrolled students who were raising to the challenge of coming up with innovative business ideas. Aunree’s focus on inclusivity enabled teams to come forward with ideas that enhanced our campus experience in diversity and inclusion. He not only coached his team but also jumped in to work on a marketing campaign for the whole event. Personally, it was a pleasure working with someone who is so talented, resourceful and personable. His energy is such that he is bound to inspire, lead and excel wherever his professional journey takes him."
