We are pleased that she will have more bandwidth to pursue her passion for women’s sports and spend more time with her family.”
“My tenure at DV has been incredibly fulfilling and rewarding, and I am happy to transition from the company knowing the commercial team is primed for evolution and continued success. During my tenure, I have seen DV expand and scale, and dominate emerging industry growth areas like Social, CTV and dynamic AI optimisation. I am thrilled to see Steve Mougis assume the Chief Commercial Officer role next year, with additional, strategic organisational changes and additions planned. I am also happy to extend my partnership with DV as Senior Advisor to continue to assist the growth of the company, and anticipate an outlook of continuous innovation and market expansion – maximising the impact of digital advertising and driving tangible outcomes for global brands.”
