COMINGS & GOINGS: At Ruby Assembly, we’re a happy and lucky bunch. Our first Client Strategist, Michelle House, changed the complexion of our organisation in the best way, giving our Digital Strategists more room to sink into deep work and as a critical contact for new and existing business. We’re sad to see Michelle go, but RA is a bit like the Hotel California 😂. You can check out …. but you never really leave! She is being ably replaced by Mariana Morris who hails from California’s Paso Robles wine district, a senior client strategist and database wrangler. We couldn’t be more chuffed to have her. RA clients, just WAIT til you meet this powerhouse of smarts and charm! Welcome Mariana.
