She gets it??? Dee Hall, Agency President, shares how our work-from-home model makes life more manageable for all the incredible women in the workforce. #internationalwomensday

The #advertising industry is moving in the right direction, but still has a lot of work to do when it comes to showing— and relating to— a more diverse audience. ? We are SO PROUD of Alexis Pick for sharing her thoughts on diversity in this year’s #SuperBowl commercials with Ad Age: ? “As a biracial woman, I did notice some representation in the Super Bowl commercials, which was great to see. There were diverse faces and strong women, which resonated with me. However, when it came to the products and themes... it would have been nice to see a broader range of interests and perspectives showcased during such a widely watched event.”

Earlier this month, Senior Account Executive Gretchen Valcarcel, MBA was able?to visit her family while working remotely. This allowed her to celebrate the holidays in Puerto Rico where festivities extend well into January and include?Día de Reyes (or Three Kings Day) and culminate with?“Las Fiesta de la Calle San Sebastian” – a festival with dancing, live music, and delicious?food! We are so glad our remote model allows team members like Gretchen to spend even more quality time with their loved ones. ? As Gretchen told us, “If you ever have the opportunity to visit Puerto Rico, do it during Christmas, I’m sure you won’t regret it!”

The classic joke is working just to be able to spoil your pets, and VP of Client Services Emily Bennett loves working remote as it optimizes life with her dogs. She competes with them in Barn Hunt, Scent Work, Agility, and Conformation. During the week she enjoys having the dogs in close proximity to check on them during breaks at her home base. When her workday is done, she has a super short commute to the back yard for training classes! We love showing off our talented team and the ways we all thrive with our remote work—keep an eye out for even more spotlights!
