My ambition is to situate our team here as an accelerator for the Battery philosophy, so that when Midwest clients are looking for standout creative delivered with a culture and entertainment-driven approach \u2013 they know to call Battery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Alongside Dunneback in Chicago is Jessie Wang in the position of Senior Brand Manager. Having previously worked together on the Kellogg\u2019s account at Leo Burnett, Wang will be utilizing her new role to maintain the strong connection and day-to-day executional excellence between the client team and Battery\u2019s creative, strategy and production teams in L.A.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn hiring for the position, I needed someone who could come in on day one ready to make a difference,\u201d explains Dunneback. \u201cNothing beats working with positive, curious and passionate individuals \u2013 people with the drive to find ways to do things better every day \u2013 and Jessie checks every one of those boxes in spades. She truly is a standout account professional, and I couldn\u2019t be more excited to have her on the team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Anson Sowby, CEO and co-founder of Battery, remarks: \u201cPat is the real deal, already he\u2019s proven the Midwestern work ethic is part of his DNA. With Pat at the helm, we\u2019re situating the Chicago team to optimize performance for our current clients and to be seen as a compelling setup for future prospects as opportunities present themselves.
