INDIANAPOLIS, July 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- JDA Worldwide (JDA), a full-service marketing agency, has named Phil Daniels its new President.

"With a seventeen-year history of taking brands to the next level, JDA continues to build upon its reputation for growth and results. I'm thrilled to join the talented team that serves some of the most impactful brands in the country, and look forward to stewarding the agency into new areas of growth," shared Daniels.
