Fingerpaint Promotes Jenny McKenna to Head of Operations

McKenna will be charged with integrating the agency’s award-winning standards across the company.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.– Jenny McKenna was promoted to head of operations at Fingerpaint, a full-service health and wellness agency with five offices across the country and nearly $80 million in revenue. She was also appointed to the agency’s operating board.

McKenna, who has been with the company since 2010, previously oversaw operations in the company’s Saratoga Springs office. Her new role is effective immediately.

“Jenny has proven time and again that she is not only a natural leader but also a team player who embodies the Fingerpaint culture of service,” said Bill McEllen, Fingerpaint partner. “I am looking forward to her operationalizing and integrating the Fingerpaint vision company-wide.”

McKenna will ensure the company is not just meeting but exceeding its aggressive revenue goals while maintaining best-in-class operational standards as the agency continues to expand. Just this year, the agency acquired managed markets firm 1798 and announced the launch of Photo 51, a consultancy focused solely on gene and cell therapies.

“It’s an honor to be a part of the incredible growth Fingerpaint has experienced over the past 10 years,” McKenna said. “I am looking forward to seeing that the core values Fingerpaint was founded on continue to be woven into the fabric of our future.”
