Before graduating from New York University's Stern School of Business,
Jordan Scott Baltimore had already launched and sold his first
venture, an IT Services firm that worked with some of New York's
leading retailers. Having sold that business in 1996, Jordan went on
to grow a single-site computer store into one of the country's Top 100
CE Retailers, with sales of over $5 million from a 700 square foot
location.
Jordan then earned his MBA from Duke University's Fuqua School of
Business at the age of 25, while working as a Strategy & Marketing
teaching and research assistant and also working nearly full-time
hours at Circuit City in Durham, North Carolina, where the idea for
Oyster Digital Media was born. Jordan was also an early member of the
strategic marketing team at Viacore, a high tech supply chain startup
in Southern California that was eventually sold to IBM.
Jordan joined Goldman Sachs in 2001 before leaving that firm to become
a founding member of Empirical Research Partners, an equity research
boutique. Returning to industry, Jordan became COO of a regional
building materials distribution firm that tripled in size under his
direction. He left after three years to launch Ocean Supply, an
international distribution and development company based in New Jersey
and in the Turks & Caicos Islands.
In 2007, Jordan brought together nearly 20 years of experience in
marketing, retail, technology, operations and finance to launch Oyster
Digital Media with a team of leading executives from retail,
technology & media.
Jordan is a regular speaker on business strategy and entrepreneurship
at a number of undergraduate business and MBA programs, most recently
lecturing on New Venture Finance at the RH Smith School of Business at
the University of Maryland.
In 2009, Jordan became the Varsity baseball coach for Hunter High
School, his alma mater. He also founded New York Empire Baseball, a
youth instructional and travel baseball organization. He specializes
in instructing and coaching ballplayers aged 5-12, and also continues
to play Shortstop and Center Field at every opportunity. Jordan and
his wife live in Manhattan and enjoy playing bocce in Central Park and
golfing together.
