Before Turn, he was a Global Marketing Director for MediaMind, a leading ad serving and cross-channel marketing platform, and the Marketing Director for RichFX, a rich media platform for e-Commerce.

"An elemental blending of disciplines has occurred where advertising and marketing messages have morphed with public relations," said Haake. "Brands and agencies rely on Synaptic Digital to produce and syndicate the resulting hybrid messages across every relevant media channel to effectively reach their audiences. This is the story that I've been hired to tell."

In addition to his technology experience, Haake brings a uniquely broad perspective to Synaptic Digital that stems from extensive work with brands, agencies, and publications. He is also recognized as a thought leader through his regular industry writings and speaking appearances.
