R/GA has announced that Julie Benevides was promoted from senior content producer to executive content producer in the agency’s Chicago office. In her new role, Julie will partner with the Chicago office’s business and creative leadership and tap into the R/GA Studio’s network of makers and storytellers to bring the best solution to the right channel across all platforms and media.
