We’ve brought in diverse talent that have worked beyond the traditional agency ecosystem. I’m thrilled to have Amrit join the team who will help our clients’ grow their digital presence and strategies to not just weather the current COVID-19 situation, but also develop long-term digital capabilities using technology, data, and automation.
