Her leadership and structured thinking will be key in expanding our operations and reinforcing KlugKlug’s values in the Indian market.”

I am stoked to be a part of the talented team at KlugKlug, especially since the Founders, who have been entrenched in the Influencer space for over a decade, and the growth of this category has only just begun.”
