About Me
In 2007, Ayinde partnered with Clear Channel to introduce the idea of content centralization and his software solution, Thumb Radio, became the first company to stream their live broadcasts onto a mobile device. This collaboration laid the groundwork for the iHeartRadio app (2009) which has been downloaded more than 75M times to date. In 2008, Ayinde had the privilege of being a contributing speech writer for/and advising Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign.
In 2010, Ayinde was invited onto Bravo's show, "The Millionaire Matchmaker" where audiences watched him work to heal the tragedy of losing his father at an early age in order to find love during Season 3, episode 9 ("Ayinde & Will"). The episode has been viewed more than 50M times in over 30 countries around the world. Ayinde was invited back twice more including a live reunion show where "Watch: What Happens Live" host, Andy Cohen, dubbed Ayinde "Everyone's Favorite Bachelor!"
Ayinde is a frequent technology panelist for the National Association of Broadcasters, RadioInk, DigitalLA, CEDIA and USC's Marshall School of Business and was awarded the "2013 New Media/Digital Emerging Emancipator” by the 50th Anniversary March on Washington Board of Directors alongside Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient, Congressman John Lewis, and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban.
