Drone Racing League Makes New Executive Hires

The Drone Racing League has made two new senior hires in Anne Marie Gianutsos, who becomes the property’s first-ever CMO, and Ari Mark, who takes over as Senior VP & Head of Partnership Development. Both Gianutsos and Mark had previous relationships with DRL President Rachel Jacobson, who led the hiring process remotely after joining the league in April. Additionally, DRL exec Ben Johnson has taken on an elevated role as Senior VP & Head of Int’l.

Mark was most recently Senior Dir of Corporate Partnerships for the Dolphins but worked with Jacobson for over seven years during their respective tenures at the NBA. Gianutsos has past roles at NBC, NewsCorp, and Conde Nast and left her role as CMO of Berkshire Hathaway’s luxury real estate company Houlihan Lawrence to join the DRL and Jacobson, who she has known for a decade.
