“Brian joins our team at a pivotal time in our business – and in the renaissance of messaging as a mobile marketing imperative.

We’re told that Garofola comes to Vibes with more than 15 years of experience leading software engineering teams.
“Vibes is a one-of-a-kind mobile platform that enables marketers to run sophisticated campaigns and deliver compelling and profitable conversations at scale,” said Garofola. “We’re introducing marketers to new modes of communication with their audiences, and we’re employing highly relevant and fast-moving technology to do it. It’s a fun industry and a fantastic team.”
