Design is Dead welcomes senior digital and Adobe expert Alexandre De Haan as new Client Service Director. After 18 months as Managing Partner at TBSCG, Alexandre accepted this new challenge, recognizing a clear match with the ‘Agile Guides in Digital Journeys’.

He worked for over a decade at Emakina.BE, a sister agency inside Emakina Group Emakina, where he held e-business, web building and sales management functions. This broad background allows him to easily reconnect with the experts in that agency, for shared know-how and common project development.
