The Dream hired veteran sports executive Morgan Shaw Parker as their new president and chief operating officer, the team announced Wednesday morning.
Shaw Parker joins the organization after most recently serving as the vice president and chief marketing officer at Arthur M. Blank Sports & Entertainment (AMBSE) where she led marketing and communications initiatives for the Atlanta Falcons and Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Her hire marks the first major decision for the Dream's new ownership group, which acquired the team ahead of this season.
"It is an incredible honor to join the WNBA and the Atlanta Dream, an organization whose new leadership celebrates its players and embraces their powerful roles both on the court and in the Atlanta community,” Shaw Parker said in a statement.
