Congratulations to Our Team Members

Dear Clients, Friends and Colleagues,

I am so excited to announce the following promotions for these Names in the News team members. In particular I want to highlight the promotion of Denise Hubbard to President of Names in the News. She will oversee the Sales department and will work closely with me on corporate initiatives. I feel particularly lucky as the incoming CEO, to have Denise at my side – I couldn’t ask for a more thoughtful or supportive colleague and leader.

The following staff advancements are in recognition of leadership, team mentorship, and stellar strategy and service to our clients. I feel so grateful to have these resilient, creative and diligent leaders at my side driving company initiatives and business strategy. Knowing that we will be working together to collaborate on the next phase of our business is very exciting! Please extend your own congratulations to the email links below.

If you are attending the Bridge Conference you can raise a celebratory toast to Denise and Marianne. They will be attending in addition to Jennifer Cox, Cheryl Achee and me. I’m so looking forward to catching up with all my long time colleagues and friends. Let us know if you’re attending!

Warm Regards,

Suzie McGuire
