Odyssey Media Group was founded by Michael Delales II, a media executive with more than two decades of experience leading media companies.

Michael began his career in television advertising sales, working directly with local businesses before expanding into regional and national media leadership roles.

Michael played a key role at Tribune Media, where he helped build the company's first fully integrated national sales organization. By bringing together television, digital, and emerging media assets under a unified strategy, he created a more effective way for advertisers to reach audiences across multiple platforms.

Michael later joined Comcast as Vice President, where he led multiple markets and oversaw teams responsible for helping advertisers navigate one of the most significant transformations in media history: the shift from traditional television to digital and streaming video.

After years of working alongside agencies and brands, Michael recognized a growing challenge. The streaming marketplace was confusing for agencies and brands to navigate effectively. He founded Odyssey Media Group to simplify that complexity.

Michael's philosophy is simple: advertising is about capturing consumer attention. Odyssey redefines this approach.
