He will also support Corporate and Consumer engagements. Pennock reports to Chad Latz, President of Cohn & Wolfe's Global Digital Media Practice.

Pennock joins Cohn & Wolfe from Ruder Finn where he was SVP, Director of Social Media, managing a team of eight that served a wide-range of clients including Novartis, JVC and Jamaica Tourist Board.

We are thrilled to have Tyler join the talents of our rapidly growing team."
