Joining the board are Jim Blayney and Frank McGrew. Both bring decades of leadership in strategy, growth (including mergers and acquisitions), sales, marketing, finance and operations.

“We welcome Jim and Frank to Sevan’s board and look forward to their valuable counsel, expertise and unique perspectives,” said Jim Evans, President and CEO of Sevan. “Their knowledge and guidance will strengthen Sevan’s commitment to deliver excellence to our clients, business partners, employees and shareholders.”

He guides these businesses on strategy, growth opportunities and general business best practices. Blayney has more than 35 years of experience and has served as President and CEO of numerous corporations including Renew Data Corporation, Rust Consulting, Inc. and the Legal and Claims Division of Sourcecorp, Inc.
