FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --­ Zimmerman Advertising, an Omnicom Group company, announced today the hire of David Crawford as Executive Creative Director. The hire comes following a series of new business wins in 2019 and Q1 2020. Joining forces with Wade Alger, the recently hired Chief Creative Officer, Crawford will look to drive and further elevate the agency's creative function; bringing his clear vision and singular-focused strategies that helped build some of the most recognized brands in the industry.

Across his career, Crawford has a track record of building and leading exceptional creative teams, creating innovative strategies, and driving consumers to purchase – a calling card of Zimmerman's DNA.
