Jacquie joined Juvo, while in stealth mode, as our first marketer and orchestrated Juvo’s global launch less than a year later, resulting in global mobile-operator demand, top-tier press, and award-winning industry recognition. Her ability to quickly grasp Juvo’s marketing needs, formulate an overarching strategy and plan, and work closely with the team to drive execution was instrumental to our success.
