We've been using Braze for a few years but I am just back from Maternity leave and it was brought to my attention that Bonfire has had a facelift so here I am! I'm hoping to build some new connections in the lifecycle and loyalty space. I am also looking to hire some Braze talent into the team so if you are looking for a new role in retention or loyalty please get in touch.
