Fred Boxa

Fred Boxa is an Associate Director based out of the New York office and a member of the TIME practice with an emphasis on Media.

Fred is a solutions-oriented digital executive who works at the intersection of strategy and technology execution. He is adept at recognizing and capitalizing upon the business implications of technology developments. With more than 20 years of experience in the consulting industry, Fred has built a successful track record spanning strategy, operations, and business development in digital media, technology, cable, and telecom industries. He specializes in customer segmentation and analytics to drive growth, product and portfolio rationalization for efficiencies, messaging and positioning to improve sales conversion, SVOD / AVOD launch and scaling, and technology partnering and negotiations.

Outside of work, Fred is an ex-runner turned power-lifter and the father of three children. In his free time, he prides himself on being the commissioner of the “world’s most complicated” fantasy football league.
