Company Overview
Bellrock Media, Inc. creates and distributes premium content for mobile and broadband platforms throughout North America and Japan. We offer a unique catalogue of digital media, products and services that set the bar in the worlds of wireless and online entertainment. In February 2007, Bellrock Media acquired Moderati, a mobile pioneer with unparalleled distribution of mobile content and unique application development capabilities. All Bellrock Media companies collaborate with premium brands and franchises in developing breakthrough content and applications that provide the ultimate experience for both consumers and marketers.
Heading up Bellrock Media’s executive team are Hiroshi Nakata and Aki Yorihiro. Hiroshi Nakata is CEO of Bellrock Media and President of Bellrock Media Japan.

Through the acquisition of Moderati, San Francisco-based Carolynne Schloeder and Cindy Mesaros join the Bellrock team. With deep experience from SkyTel, Visto and Listen.com, Chief Operating Officer Carolynne Schloeder built Moderati into a top-tier aggregator and provider of mobile personalization content. She oversees operations, including engineering, business development and marketing. Bringing marketing experience from Listen.com, SVP Marketing Cindy Mesaros is responsible for marketing strategy, planning and activities, product management, content production, PR and promotions.
To support growth, Bellrock Media created Sedona Capital, an investment fund that pursues strategic investments in emerging technology in related industries. Through Bellrock Media in Tokyo, and its relationship with Yoshimoto Kogyo, Bellrock Media deploys content to and from Japan — the most mature mobile market in the world.
