BridgeGate LLC is pleased to announce the placement of Aaron Burcell as VP Marketing, Jangl.
Aaron Burcell most recently headed marketing and communications at PodShow, where he was one of the first five employees, helping PodShow vault from early podcasting leader in 2005 to the world's fastest growing media company in 2007. At PodShow, Burcell successfully created media and ad industry awareness that supported the company's programming acquisition and ad industry partnerships, and in turn helped generate revenue from a global audience of tens of millions.

One of the first five to join Stata Labs, Burcell drove marketing efforts for Bloomba 2.0, a critically-acclaimed search-based email program later licensed to Corel Corporation.
