Chris Noriega has been promoted to partner at Verve.
The TV lit agent becomes the company s first former assistant to become a partner since the agency was founded in 2010. In all, Noriega becomes Verve s ninth partner, joining Bryan Besser, Adam Levine, Bill Weinstein, Amy Retzinger, Adam Weinstein, David Boxerbaum, Felicia Prinz and Sean Grumman. We launched Verve over a decade ago with a goal of creating an environment in which interns become assistants, assistants become agents and agents become partners. Noriega’s promotion is extra special as he is the first to make the leap from assistant to partner! We are excited to add more fuel to our leadership team and look forward to what he accomplishes in this new role, the Verve partners said in a joint statement Tuesday.
