Mick Emmett

Vice President of Marketing & Communications

Mick took a roundabout route to Zapata AI through different tech companies in different cities. After growing up in the Boston area and going to college in Vermont (English degree from St. Michael’s College), he has spent the past 20 years in tech in Boston, New York City, and San Diego in a variety of marketing and sales roles. Always interested in “what’s next” with tech, it’s not surprising that he found Zapata AI.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?

How you do anything is how you do everything.

What are people often surprised to know about you?

I used to be a music writer in Boston. I mostly wrote for local rock music publications — and even did some pieces for The Boston Globe.
