DMS Insights president Chuck Miller has been given the additional role of chief research officer while DMS vice president of marketing Melanie Courtright has been appointed vice president of client services for uSamp.

Both positions are newly created roles within the company, uSamp said.

Matt Dusig, uSamp’s co-founder and CEO, said: “As a founder of DMS and a pioneer in the online market research industry, Chuck Miller brings to uSamp a rare level of expertise in both sampling and market research services. In the newly created position of chief research officer, Chuck’s experience as an end-user of data will help uSamp apply that knowledge to produce sample of unprecedented quality.

“Similarly, Melanie Courtright’s extensive background in all aspects of the client lifecycle makes her uniquely qualified to oversee the satisfaction of uSamp’s customer base. Under her guidance and with the complementary skill sets provided by a combined uSamp and DMS, our clients will enjoy a product scope and traffic scale that’s unparallelled.”

Before co-founding DMS Insights in 1995, Miller held several roles at The M/A/R/C Group.
