Nevin will report directly into Kelly Cook, Chief Marketing Officer.
"I look forward to joining the marketing team and expanding my role at David's Bridal," said Shetty. "As I've worked to grow Blueprint from the ground up, I've met incredible partners across industries. I see endless opportunity to grow our existing partner base and to introduce new partners to the David's Bridal customer," he said.
Lia Madonna has been with David's Bridal since 2008 and has played an integral role on the partnerships team since her start. She has led the department in prospecting, forecasting, and prioritizing partnership opportunities, and has built and fostered long-term strategic partnerships that align with the brands' core objectives. Lia will report directly into Nevin.
"In addition to providing our brides a one-stop shop for all her dress and accessory needs on her special day, we want to be her one-stop shop for the wedding day and beyond, as well. As 'stress-free devotees', we are committed to making things as easy, elegant, and effortless as possible for her as she plans every last detail of her magical moments.
