While it sounds like I'm choosing the prom theme, I'm actually leading up Clemenger's stupidly talented social media team.We work across a whole bunch of our clients, both as full service and project-based stuff, adding a social layer to integrated campaigns and dreaming stuff up from scratch. In the past few months alone, we've had a hand in Remote.
