Before moving east from California in 2001, Rudnick oversaw sports, entertainment and consumer publicity at Excite@Home, at the time a Silicon Valley darling, and publicized the company’s sponsorship of the IRL’s Team Cheever and their relationships with sports leagues, teams and entertainment partners around the globe. Microsoft brought Rudnick to San Francisco from Los Angeles to run PR programs in the critical Northern California region where she interacted directly with the Company’s C-level executives.
