As a banner year for Doe-Anderson comes to a close, president and chief creative officer Leyla Touma Dailey announced the addition of three talented creative leaders to the agency’s award-winning team.

Collin Buenerkemper, Hayden Griffin, and Samantha "Sam" Jolley have joined as associate creative directors. The new additions follow last month’s recruitment of Marianne Newton as vice president, director of integrated production.

“Attracting top-tier creative talent like Collin, Hayden and Sam is a real testament to the quality of our creative work and the unique energy that comes from an employee-owned agency,” said Touma Dailey.
