SVP, Digital Media and Business Development
WE tv

WE tv is big into brand extension, and Robertson is all about developing strategies to take Toni Braxton, Joan Rivers and company to new media platforms like the WE Sync live, dual-screen app. She oversees all social media, content creation and technical direction for the network’s growing family of women-centric digital properties, including WE tv.com and GuySpeak.com. Robertson also has a savvy eye on acquisitions and licensing initiatives, including the launches of “Braxton Family Values,” “Joan & Melissa: Joan Knows Best?” and “Weddings WE Love” DVD lines for Target and two WE-related books.

Would you rather own a flying car or a jetpack— and why? Definitely a jetpack. You never have to worry about parking.
