Spencer Brown is a MySpace Master, BBQ Maestro and Ocean Lovin' Maharishi from Seal Beach, California. His ultimate wish is to work four days a week with the fifth day for surfing! Weekends are reserved for Ali and Rosie, his wife and three year old daughter. Brown got his degree in Aquatic Biology from the University of California, Santa Barbara which lead to a career in advertising at Yahoo.. go figure!! Thankfully he still maintains his aquatic skills by keeping up a saltwater aquarium in is living room. Seriously, I have seen this "aquarium" and I don't recall seeing any "live" fish in there... but shhhhh - don't tell Mr. Brown - let him believe what he wants. Brown currently works for Fox/News Corporation at the Fox Audience Network as the Executive Director of Product Management, where he leads the strategy and development of MyAds, MySpace's self service advertising product for small businesses. Cool! He's smart - THANK GOD he's left the fish for computers!
