The National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP) has named Jason Riveiro as chief marketing officer, bringing more than 10 years of experience in leading multinational strategic initiatives for some of the most recognized Fortune 500 companies on both the agency and client side. Prior to joining NAHREP, he was responsible for launching multicultural marketing departments at Big Lots, North America’s largest broadline closeout retailer and for the nation’s largest specialty retailer of paint and painting supplies, The Sherwin-Williams Co.
