The executive brings more than two decades of experience in customer acquisition, engagement and marketing communication strategy.

The company has a goal of revitalizing some $543 million in residential properties in the Chicago market during the next five years, according to representatives for New Western. It estimates there are about 3 million “aged properties” in the Chicago area alone, with almost 88% of them built before 2001.
