Brian Conrad joins RenewData as vice president of client services. Mr. Conrad is an experienced electronic discovery specialist, with eight years of experience in the industry. His team will manage all projects from the time data is received at RenewData through review and production. His seasoned project management team, including three licensed attorneys, defines requirements, manages timelines and provides timely and consistent communication with clients.
Joe Venturella, a former deputy CIO for Williams and Connolly LLP, has been promoted to senior vice president of legal solutions. Mr. Venturella has appointed Jake Frazier, Esq. as vice president of sales and Jason Velasco as vice president of advisory services. Mr. Frazier, a licensed attorney, manages the sales team, including two other attorneys and electronic discovery industry veterans Keith Sirois and Dan Berner.

"My experience is from the law firm side of the business; therefore, I understand how frustrating it can be to work with vendors that are technological, yet don't understand the legal process," said Venturella.
