SANTA MONICA, USA // Mandy Gabriel is Vice President of Music for Advertising at Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG), where she helps connect the company’s world-class catalog of songs and songwriters with leading brands, advertisers, and media platforms. With more than 15 years of experience spanning music licensing and creative services, she has built a reputation as a trusted leader at the intersection of music, culture, and brand storytelling.

At UMPG, Gabriel has worked across sync campaigns with brands including Lenovo, Comcast, JBL, and Pinterest, helping expand the reach of UMPG’s songwriters and artists while driving innovative marketing initiatives. Her work has earned industry recognition from Billboard as a Top Branding Power Player, Women in Music honoree, and a member of its 40 Under 40 list.

When she’s not championing songwriters, Gabriel can be found chasing after her toddler daughter, listening to music podcasts, or exploring Home Depot in search of her next DIY project.
