Michael leverages data and technology to fuel TBWA’s creative product and client business growth, as the collective continues to expand its remit from communications partner to business partner, and advances beyond advertising to brand orchestration and experience design. He’s charged with further developing the company’s data services and products, collaborating with Omnicom’s internal data suppliers and partner agencies as well as external data platforms. Michael will also drive the adoption of ethical and inclusive data standards across the global collective.
