“R3’s mission and goals at the intersection of tech, financial services, and social innovation is a strength for MWWPR,” said Kristie Taylor, executive vice president, and technology practice lead at MWWPR. “Fostering awareness and educating on the complex issues surrounding criminal background screening as part of a continued dialogue of inclusion in the United States makes this a particularly meaningful assignment for us.”
