Michael Polansky has worked in tech for nearly a decade. He attended Harvard at the same time as Mark Zuckerberg and, according to his LinkedIn, went on to work at Founders Fund, the venture capital firm founded by Peter Thiel, the first outside investor in Facebook.
Polansky later served as COO for Airtime, the secretive video-chat platform founded in 2011 by Napster founders Sean Parker and Shawn Fanning.

Polansky appears to have been involved in several of Parker's other ventures since 2010.
According to his LinkedIn page, he's executive director of the Parkers' charity, the Parker Foundation; he's a board member at the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy; he's managing partner at Parker Ventures; and he's CEO of the Parker Group, which serves as the umbrella organization for all of Parker's other endeavors.
Polansky and Lady Gaga likely met through events and parties that Parker has hosted and were first spotted together on New Year's Eve in Las Vegas. Polansky also attended the Super Bowl in Miami last weekend with Lady Gaga, appearing in photos with her as they left the game.
