Agency Taps Former Big Spaceship Exec, Further Expanding Its Tech and Innovation Expertise
NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Full-service agency Rauxa today announced it has appointed Arthur Fullerton as Chief Technology Officer. Fullerton will lead Rauxa’s deep-rooted technology practice across six offices. With a vision for collaborative creativity, he will work closely with Chief Creative Officer Lincoln Bjorkman to further integrate technology into Rauxa’s creative offering. Fullerton is based in Rauxa’s New York office and will report directly to President and CEO Gina Alshuler.
“Arthur joins our team as an innovator, known for expertly combining technology, data, and creativity to get bold results,” said Alshuler.
With over 18 years in the industry, Fullerton has developed applications and built technology and product teams for clients across the automotive, e-commerce, and healthcare industries. Prior to Rauxa, Fullerton served as Chief Technology Officer at Big Spaceship, where he led strategy to codify the agency’s central platform. His focus there was on capturing massive volumes of social data and insight to inform products, marketing opportunities, and campaign content for clients.
“I’m thrilled to join Rauxa,” said Fullerton. “They’ve scaled quickly to become a national powerhouse—no small feat for an independent agency. However, it’s Rauxa’s investments in emerging technologies that show the agency is primed to thrive for years to come. I’m driven by integrating technology, data, and creativity, so I look forward to pushing the boundaries to drive results for clients in unexpected ways.”
Fullerton’s appointment comes on the heels of continued momentum for Rauxa. In the last year, the agency has grown, winning new clients such as Alaska Airlines, Keep America Beautiful, and Piedmont Healthcare. The agency has also recently brought on key talent to its executive team, including Lincoln Bjorkman (CCO), Autumn Berrang (SVP, Account Services), Georgia Galanoudis (VP, Strategic Planning), and Corinne Bellville (VP, Strategic Partnerships), and has grown its New York office to over 200 staffers.
