With more than 20 years of experience across global agencies, holding companies, and startups, Corona brings a well-rounded perspective to the role. She joined WPP in January as Global Growth Lead for the Verizon account. Before that, she was President & Partner at independent agency Slap Global, where she led the company to major AOR wins with SeatGeek, Petco, and Eastern Mountain Sports, while doubling revenue each year.
During her time at Slap, the agency earned recognitions such as Effies’ Global Independent Agency of the Year and Ad Age Small Agency of the Year—two years in a row. Earlier, she served as Chief Growth Officer at McCann North America and played a key role in launching McCann Entertainment.
