To boost revenue to these record levels, Lashawnda successfully built a high performing team to support a roster of 26,000 media properties – which offer inventory from both multicultural and general market publishers in addition to generating over 130 billion impressions per month across display, CTV, in-app. Lashawnda spearheads making Colossus SSP a more inclusive marketplace by empowering niche and multicultural publishers through partnerships, including work with Black-owned publisher Blavity, as well as CafeMedia (recently rebranded as Raptive), one of the largest networks of minority, women and veteran-owned sites.
