I am incredibly thrilled & happy to be part of the Mindshare and the purple family, it's sort of homecoming for me and as Mindshare now re-orients its business around the pillars of ‘acceleration’, ‘outcomes’ and good growth, I am really looking forward to working with the teams here at Mindshare to shape the continued phase of growth and transformation for its clients.”
