Brilliant PR & Marketing is adding to its executive ranks following three years of growth.
The agency with a focus on family, juvenile, and lifestyle brands hired Shivna Vasavada to serve as vice president of public relations and Dan Chizzoniti as vice president of influencer marketing.
“Our growth is a testament to the passion and commitment that our team has for our clients and for the family space,” says Brilliant PR & Marketing President Kathleen Tomes.
Vasavada joins the agency with more than 15 years of experience in public relations. She most recently served as an account director at SPM Communications, and previously led the Dallas office for Bread & Butter. Earlier in her career, Vasavada held roles at Hunter, Edleman, and other agencies.
Chizzoniti comes to Brilliant from Hello Cake where he served as head of influencer marketing. He was previously the vice president of influencer marketing at Ogilvy and also held roles at Factory PR and the Wetherly Group earlier in his career.
Brilliant PR & Marketing says that its new hires will help to further grow the business as it expands its capabilities across marketing and public relations. The agency currently represents a number of clients in the toy industry, including Connetix, iPlay iLearn, Peg Perego, and Scentco’s Bedtime Defenderz.
