Like the old Wild West, today’s digital frontier is vast, dangerous and, for many brands, a little scary. Today’s marketers and advertisers are the pioneers when it comes to engaging with consumers and creating cross-platform content. For this year’s Mashies, Mashable’s annual digital marketing awards program, we’ve wrangled one of our best judging lineups yet to help us navigate this year’s submissions. We’re pleased to introduce more of our 2016 Mashies judges:

• Ron Amram, VP of Media, Heineken USA - Leading one of the most decorated marketing teams in the U.S., Amram heads media investment, communications strategy and implementation across paid and earned media for some of the most social and followed beer brands.
• Caitlin Bergmann, Director of Content & Creative, MediaCom - Deemed one of the top global innovators in advertising by The Internationalist, Bergmann has already shared her expertise during our Mashies Twitter chat.
• Kenyatta Bynoe, VP of Marketing, Spalding - Named a member of the Event Marketer “Dream Team,” Bynoe is responsible for managing and fulfilling the strategic partnership with the NBA under which Spalding serves as the official basketball and backboard.
• Katy Lee, Digital Communications Manager, Hershey - Managing digital strategies and innovative projects for the largest chocolate manufacturer in North America, Lee’s work in social media has won her numerous awards and recognition.
• Ray Velez, CTO, Razorfish - Velez knows so much about the importance of technology in modern marketing that he could write a book about it. In fact, he already did!

Bringing in professionals ranging from cable networks in Australia to insurance companies in Hong Kong, the 2016 Mashies judging panel is also our most diverse—both in industry and nationality. To get your work in front of this esteemed panel, submit your work for the 2016 Mashies. Applications close on Friday, June 24 at 11:59 p.m. EST.
