Broadcasting runs through Sean Rickner’s blood. His career began at a Winnipeg rock station at 18 years old, before moving on to TV to work on-air and behind the scenes.

Sean became involved with new media, creating and running the new media department at Naylor Communications. He then moved on to stints as Art Director at MediaEdge Publishing and Creative Director at E.H. Price.

In 2008, Sean joined APTN as Manager of Marketing. During his tenure, he incorporated new media into APTN’s marketing initiatives, including social media, live streaming and beyond. In September 2012, his next challenge arrived when he was appointed to Senior Manager of Marketing. Sean captains both Marketing and Creative Services, and continues searching for clever ways to market and brand APTN – transforming a television network to a platform for digital content.
