“What a thrill to join Danny, as well as Marta and Renee, to help grow this agency’s Atlanta profile,” said Lackey. “I’ve been an admirer for a long time, and I’m excited by the opportunities for my clients that will come by working with them and all of the agents in the company. It’s especially meaningful to me to be playing a role as my home town continues to show its strength as a production center.”
