Lori Bonn Design hires new execs

November 20, 2009

Oakland, Calif.--Lori Bonn Design has announced the addition of two new executives to its growing operation, with the company saying the move will enable Lori Bonn Design to fully capitalize on the considerable expansion it expects to undertake in the next year and beyond.

Michael Digirolamo has been hired as director of production/merchandising, and Debra Glasband has signed on as director of marketing.

Digirolamo brings more than 15 years of production experience to Lori Bonn Design, including senior positions involving retail production, forecasting and merchandising at major brands such as Gap Inc., Baby Gap and Gymboree.

Glasband hails from one of the top creative agencies in the United States, where she provided senior-level marketing and brand strategy consulting to a variety of national and global clients, including Microsoft, T-Mobile, Madison Square Garden, Frito Lay and Organic Valley. She boasts a Stanford design education and has worked as an apprentice under master jewelers in Florence, Italy.

"Hiring Mike and Debra is part of the overall growth and upgrading of our company," Lori Bonn Design Chief Executive Officer Bill Gallagher said in a media release. "We attribute our advancement to our new product strategy and our ability to stay nimble, and we've provided our retailers with a story that deeply resonates with their consumer."

From merchandising planning to production strategy, the San Francisco Bay Area company has developed a fully integrated, in-house operation that its executives say is positioned for considerable expansion in the next fiscal year.
