Trish Taylor, senior VP in Ogilvy PR Washington's social change practice, has moved to Fenton to head its D.C. office as managing director.
Joe Wagner, current managing director of the Washington outpost, is shifting into an agency-wide role focused on healthcare.
Her client experience spans the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Feeding America, among others.
Taylor, who has a PhD in social psychology, was previously a senior planner and VP at DraftFCB and a partner at Ogilvy & Mather.
Bill Werde, CEO of Fenton, said hiring Taylor is a "powerful investment" in the firm's core sector expertise and agency skills like social, digital, creative and branding.
