Top Philadelphia-based brand marketing agency promotes a nearly decade-long team member to lead its paid media division
PHILADELPHIA, PA — February 24, 2026 — MEDICI + MAESTRO | Mx2 Global, the award-winning full-service brand marketing agency based in the Philadelphia area, today announced the promotion of Ashlee Brown to Senior Director of Paid Media. Brown, who joined the agency in July 2017, has been elevated from her previous role as Director of Performance Marketing – a reflection of her sustained impact on the agency’s media operations and her growth as a leader within the organization.
In her new role, Brown will lead Mx2’s paid media operations, overseeing media strategy and execution across the agency’s diverse client portfolio. She will report directly to the agency’s Founder + President, Drew Salamone.
Brown’s career at Mx2 is a testament to the agency’s commitment to developing talent from within. Over nearly nine years, she has held virtually every role within the media discipline – building her expertise from the ground up and earning her Google certification along the way. Her fingerprints are on the agency’s analytics practice, her eye for detail sharpens every campaign she touches, and her instinct for a strong media mix has consistently driven results for clients across verticals.
“Ashlee has been an integral part of our media operations since the day she walked through the door,” said Drew Salamone, Founder and President of MEDICI + MAESTRO. “She is someone who truly lives and breathes media – someone who is obsessed with driving results and has been quietly behind the success of our clients’ campaigns for years. This promotion is both well-deserved and a natural fit. I couldn’t be more confident in the future of our media practice.”
In her new role as Senior Director of Paid Media, Brown will take the helm of Mx2’s full media campaign operation – overseeing the entire workflow from media plan request through execution and optimization. Her scope spans paid search and social campaigns across Google Ads, Meta, and Google Grant accounts, text message marketing and the agency’s analytics reporting practice. She brings to the role exactly what the role demands: process orientation, platform fluency, a bias toward proactive client communication, and the kind of hands-on campaign instincts that only come from years of actually doing the work.
Brown’s elevation signals continued optimization of Mx2’s performance marketing capabilities as the agency refines its operations and work in digital advertising, paid social, OTT, and analytics-driven campaign optimization for brands across the country.
