Year."
Kelsey replaces Dr. Mark Reilly, who today announces his
resignation from the board of directors after serving since
2017.
John Pearson, non-executive chairman at Mirriad , said: "Kelsey
is a great appointment for Mirriad. Her wealth of experience in
Silicon Valley and in London aligns perfectly with the renewed
technology focus that will define Mirriad as the in-content
solution for a new era in audience engagement. We look forward to
drawing on her impressive technology and strategic growth
credentials as Mirriad seeks to deliver further long-term
scale.
"On behalf of myself and the Board, I would also like to extend
a huge thank you to Mark Reilly for his work and guidance to bring
Mirriad to its current market-leading position."
Kelsey Lynn Skinner, incoming non-executive director at Mirriad
, said: "Mirriad immediately stands out as a true innovator in a
fast-changing sector. The company's technology will enable an
important new era of non-intrusive advertising, and the leadership
team is stellar. I'm excited to join the board for this promising
next chapter, including additional US market growth."
