“Working with Wayne and Mack Maine for the last 10+ years in my career has always been an amazing privilege. From WeezyThankxYou, Beats By Dre, and various marketing developments this journey has been fulfilling, and now I have this role as GM/EVP where I can help expand and navigate the brand over the few years. It’s a full circle moment, and I’m excited to see what we achieve,” Civil exclusively told Variety.
