Chums, the travel and active lifestyle accessory producer, and sister brand Beyond Coastal, the sun care product manufacturer, announced the hire of Susie Tew as e-commerced director at the companies’ Salt Lake City office.

With a BS in Business Marketing and in International Business, Tew steps into her role as E-Commerce Director after working with Chums and Beyond Coastal as a contractor. Tew will work directly with the sales team based in Salt Lake City, overseeing Chums, Beyond Coastal and third-party e-commerce channels.
