“There’s no platform more embedded in every day culture and what’s happening than Twitter," Kim was quoted as saying. “And in this day and age, that is a critical opportunity for marketers to make meaningful connections with influential audiences to grow their business and brand. I’m thrilled to join the Twitter team and find new ways to bring Twitter’s value to life for all businesses, big and small, across the world.”
