Data-Driven Marketing Agency, Rauxa, Promotes Gina Alshuler to CEO and Continues Growth With Seattle Office Debut

COSTA MESA, CA--(Marketwired - February 10, 2016) -  Rauxa, an insight-led, integrated digital marketing agency, announces the promotion of Gina Alshuler from President to Chief Executive Officer. Alshuler succeeds Jill Gwaltney, Rauxa's Founder and previous CEO. In addition, the agency is continuing its rapid growth across the U.S. with the debut of a new office in Seattle to more effectively service the Northwest area.

"Rauxa is a distinctly different kind of marketing agency -- one that is relentless in understanding and meeting the needs of its clients and using data to power solutions," commented Jill Gwaltney, who launched the company in 1999 and will now take the title of Founder. "That's why as Rauxa positions itself for growth in the years ahead, there is no one better to be at the helm than Gina. Having been a Rauxan herself for 15 years and counting, Gina not only lives our culture, but also uniquely combines emotional intelligence with strategic chops. When it comes to serving the needs of our clients, Gina has wicked smart insight into today's evolving marketing landscape."

Warmly referred to by employees as "Motivator in Chief," Alshuler will leverage her 15-year track record with the agency to continue its integration of insight, technology and talent to offer brands the very best integrated marketing solutions. Throughout her career with the agency, she has effectively built and bolstered strategic client partnerships while delivering sharp, creative work across verticals. She has held various roles at Rauxa including Senior Vice President of Account Services, Account Director and Account Manager, having worked her way up the ranks since first joining in 2001.

"Rauxa is the agency to watch this year. In addition to nearly two decades of successful partnerships with marquee brands such as Verizon and Gap Inc., our agency is on a solid growth path. As we expand, my focus will be on continuing to uphold our reputation for anticipating our clients' needs and for delivering distinctly insightful, creative work," added Alshuler. "To do this, we will double down on our bold Rauxan culture and continue to grow our teams across the country with some of the brightest minds in our industry."

In addition to Alshuler's promotion to CEO, Rauxa also announces its new Seattle office -- the fourth creative hub for Rauxa following San Francisco, New York and Southern California. The Seattle office will service major Rauxa clients across the Northwest. Seattle marks Rauxa's seventh office nationwide, as the agency expands to service a quickly growing roster of clients which includes Allergan, Delta Dental, Gap Inc. and Verizon.
