a.s.a.p.r. integrated marketing today announced that Clay Tarpley has rejoined the agency as Vice President of Operations. Tarpley, who spent seven years with the agency (2002-2009) in a series of account services roles, will now oversee many aspects of the day-to-day operations of the firm.
“As the economy has continued to improve, our firm has been growing and stretching – it’s a very exciting time and we need someone who can be very focused on our mission,” said Robbie Tarpley Raffish, president of a.s.a.p.r. “Clay’s in-depth knowledge of both the agency and the regional business community are tremendous assets and we are excited he is able to return to help lead the way.”
Tarpley rejoins the agency from Salisbury Neighborhood Housing Services (SNHS) where he has served as Program Manager since 2013. During his tenure he oversaw the redevelopment of homes in at-risk neighborhoods, helping to return those neighborhoods to thriving areas, as well as helping to expand the agency’s grant programs.
He joined SNHS from the Salisbury Area Chamber of Commerce, where he held the position of Membership Director for several years, managing both membership programs and major special events such as Salisbury Festival and Delmarva Chicken Festival.
Raffish and Tarpley, who have been married since 1993, moved a.s.a.p.r. to Salisbury from the Philadelphia suburbs in 2001. Established by Raffish in 1996, the agency will celebrate its 19th year with a move to a larger space necessitated by the growth of its client roster, product offerings and contractor network (known as the a.s.a.p.r. Creative Suite.)
Clay is also a United States Army veteran, and participates in many veterans support organizations.
