Christine’s a real people person who enjoys working with all kinds of clients. She handled business development for PPI for two years, greatly contributing to the company’s recent growth, before transitioning into account management full-time.

Amy Gresens, Senior Account Manager
Amy Gresens had worked with Sherry Hopkins at an ad agency in the early 00’s, and we were fortunate to add her to PPI’s team in January 2009. During her career, Amy has led marketing initiatives for both B2B and B2C companies ranging from startups to global Fortune 100 conglomerates. She’s equally skilled at using both the left and right sides of her brain – she’s analytical and creative, and builds strong relationships with her clients.

Lindsay Walker, Senior Account Manager
How did Lindsay Walker come to join the PPI team? Let’s just say it helps to have friends in high places…she’s Stacy’s sister, just 16 months younger. Living in Northern California, Lindsay was looking for new challenges in 2007 and Stacy jumped at the chance to take advantage of her big brain (we’d brag more about her smarts, but she won’t let us). Down-to-earth and geeky about numbers, Lindsay brings keen insights to the team, especially on the pay-per-click and analytics sides of the equation. We haven’t yet found something new to throw her into that she couldn’t learn and conquer quickly.

Sherry Hopkins, Vice President
Sherry Hopkins’ previous job at an ad agency brought her and Stacy together to pitch a mutual client. The client has long since been forgotten, but Sherry joined the Prominent Placement team in late 2006 and we’ve never looked back! She’s equally comfortable with big picture strategies and tactical details. She’s willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done, and has nearly single-handedly written PPI’s process manual (no small task). As Vice President, Sherry keeps PPI humming along smoothly. She’s a superb trainer and mentor to new team members, and keeps us laughing with her quick wit.
