A public relations leader, Clyne brought 18 years of integrated technology communications experience to MWWPR, both within agencies and in-house. She has led communications programs for numerous enterprise technology, consumer, security, storage, digital health and wellness, B2B and B2C clients, from global brands to start-up innovators.
