“I’m delighted to welcome Tamara to the board,” said H. Edward Hanway, independent chairman of the company’s board of directors. “Tamara’s expertise in data-driven marketing and operational skills in leading a client-focused, global business make her a tremendous addition to our board. We look forward to working closely with her.”
