Do it Best announces the appointment of Kerry Hasselbach as the new director of marketing. Hasselbach brings more than 20 years of experience and a proven track record of success in leadership roles across the home and retail industries, making her a valuable addition to the Do it Best team.
Before joining Do it Best, Hasselbach served in various leadership positions in New York, Dallas, and Fort Wayne for both private and public companies.
