Congratulations to Allyssa Kaiser (Media Arts 2009) who was named a “Leader to Watch in 2024” by CommerceNext and was chosen for the 2024 CommerceXcellence Awards in recognition of her leadership and innovation in media! Kaiser is Senior Director of Performance Marketing for NEST New York.
Allyssa is an accomplished marketing professional with over a decade of experience leading digital marketing and media initiatives for some of America’s best brands. She joined luxury fragrance brand, NEST New York, in 2021 as their head of performance marketing.
