Jukin Media Adds To Executive Team

Los Angeles-based viral video entertainment network Jukin Media is continuing to build out its executive team, saying today that it has named Jerry Boonstra as its new Chief Technology Officer, and Theresa Tran as its new Head of Product. The company--which was founded by Jonathan Skogmo--said that Boonstra was most recently at Frequency, and also served at CNET. Tran has been at Viacom and Fourth Wall Studios. The company said that both will work on its licensing platform, which the company uses to streamline and automate the licensing process for trending content. Jukin Media works to help license viral video content, which it publishes both on its own YouTube channels as well as licenses to news outlets, TV morning shows, clip shows, and others.
