"It's been a privilege to work for Siegel+Gale in such a variety of regions," says Peters. "The experience has proven how eager organizations and governments around the world are to build brands that stand out from the local level to the global stage. I look forward to connecting with the creative teams across all of Siegel+Gale's offices to ensure we're equipped to help brands meet this challenge."
