A lead negotiator for A+E Nets, Rice works on many high profile accounts domestically and in Canada, while managing her distribution team. Described as a “smart and savvy dealmaker,” she searches for a “win-win” scenario with her distribution partners. When it comes to balancing work and home life, she says “it’s about getting the blend right and that’s a moving target based who and what needs your attention more.”

How do you define a successful career?

One that challenges you, one where you learn every day and if you’re lucky enough, one where you enjoy the people as much as I enjoy my colleagues.

Best trick for maintaining the personal-professional life balance?

There is no balance -it’s about getting the blend right and that’s a moving target based who and what needs your attention more.

When not in the office, where are we most likely to find you?

At a voice lesson in NYC with my eldest daughter or somewhere in Fairfield County at a YMCA Flyfins swim meet with my girls.
