With his extensive business experience, most recently as head of investor relations group, he is well-equipped to tackle this challenge.


Similarly, Victoria has an impressive track record, both as a consumer industry stock analyst and more recently as a senior member of Mike's team. Her promotion is a testament to her energy, commitment, and drive.
