Madelyn Cunningham

Madelyn’s diverse experiences in entertainment and marketing coalesce to create a force in unscripted programming and original content development.

FAVORITE quote

“Spaceships don’t come equipped with rear-view mirrors.” – Andre 3000

Madelyn never imagined she would be in marketing. In fact, if you asked her 18 year-old self who she would be today, she would tell you a doctor–the full force, Meredith Grey type. A trip abroad and a gut feeling later, she canceled her MCAT exam in search of a career path more akin to her love for director’s cuts, instead of surgical ones. 

Experience:

She landed a position at Discovery with the Travel Channel and became incredibly familiar with programming and increasingly curious about the development process. Madelyn organized shows and commercials for the broadcast and was hooked after a lucky mentoring opportunity in the programming department. 

Fast forward a few years through crucial roles in project management, account management and small business ownership, Madelyn has come full circle, driving the development of compelling content and unscripted programming. At Designsensory, she focuses on ambitious formats, untapped talent and telling untold stories in the food, home and lifestyle spaces. 

Outside of Work:

When she isn’t daydreaming of the next great unscripted hit, you can find Madelyn reading on her porch, rewatching True Detective (season one, only) with her husband, or attempting to throw anything decent on the pottery wheel.
