In her new role, Rigdon will develop new retailer relationships and optimize existing ones. Rigdon has 27 years of experience she’ll bring to this role including ten years as a business development manager for WPS. “More and more people are coming back to their previous employers than ever before according to the Wallstreet Journal,” says Rigdon, “They call us Boomerangs.
