SAN FRANCISCO, April 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Global tech PR firm Method Communications has bolstered its breadth of expertise in enterprise technology by hiring Executive Vice President Adrian Eyre, an experienced agency leader with previous roles at Edelman, Ogilvy Public Relations and Waggener Edstrom, and Josh Lefkowitz and Ruben Simpliciano as vice presidents. Eyre joins Method's San Francisco office, leading the agency's enterprise team, along with Simpliciano; Lefkowitz leads the company's growing New York office.
