We have transformed this Company from a disparate brand to a fully formed, diversified media company complete with a thriving news organization hosting a collection of some of the most recognizable consumer brands. Your commitment to excellence, progress and ethics is unparalleled and the relationships we have built are everlasting. Which is why as the anniversary of my tenure approaches, it is so difficult to share that I have made the decision to move onto the next chapter.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    <em>I am proud to leave a Vice better than the one I joined.

Despite all this the Vice, Vice Studios, Pulse, as well as Virtue, R29, i-D and Unbothered brands are strong. We reduced overhead by half and yet improved the quality of our revenues through both increased profitability and growth of returning revenues. As we face new headwinds in the marketplace Vice is now less ad dependent, and our gross margins have more than doubled.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    <em>Most important, while there\u2019s still much work to be done, Vice is a more diverse and inclusive environment than ever.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    <em>Today Vice has an incredible opportunity in the hands of a new management team who are looking to harness the businesses we built and grew and to lay the groundwork for the future.
