Fraser Wallace Advertising has promoted Decia Stringer, with the agency since early 2004, from Account Supervisor to Director of Account Service. She will oversee the agency's full account service staff while personally maintaining a hands-on presence with key accounts.

Ann York has joined Fraser Wallace Advertising as an Account Executive, coming from a varied marketing and public relations background that includes Whole Foods and relationship marketing for education associations. Meagan Twyman has also been brought on board as an Account Executive, and has extensive experience working in the agency's industry specialization – real estate and development – from tenures with local agencies Leigh Lessard Strategies and Hammer Communications. Fraser Wallace Advertising has also added Kristi Poling to the staff as an Account Executive, primarily handling clients in the Midwest and Northeast. Ms. Poling comes to the agency from Vocus, a publisher of on-demand software designed for public relations professionals.

She came from ASCD, a nonprofit leadership and professional development association that serves the education field, where she had been in sales and marketing for the past three years. However, prior to ASCD, Ms. Pereira was an Account Coordinator with Fraser Wallace for two years.

Ecendant Interactive, which concentrates on website design, online advertising and social network marketing, has recently hired Maddy Thom as a new Production Coordinator.
