The new communications collaborative shop brings together marketing communications counselors with vast experience in multicultural marketing, public relations, event management and social media. “After leading multiple communications teams in-house and for some of the world’s top firms, I’m proud to launch a different kind of agency to address the needs of the new American reality.
