Agency Growth
“Our focus has been on expanding our business in areas we have an expertise in, and a passion for, such as silicon, mobile, networking, security and big data,” said Wireside Partner RJ Bardsley.

An Expanding Team of Talent
Earlier this year, Wireside announced several new hires to support its expanding portfolio of technology clients. As the firm has grown, it has continued to add new talent to the team. In July, industry veteran Stephanie Styons joined Wireside as executive vice president. She will work side-by-side with the partners to shape the agency as it continues to grow. Styons brings with her more than three decades of experience managing global teams for established tech brands and innovative startups.
“Talent and culture are critical to successfully building an agency, and the people on the Wireside team are some of the best in the industry,” said Styons. “The agency is strong and growing, and the team is smart, strategic and committed to client service. I am energized by the journey ahead and thrilled to be a part of the team.”
