NEW YORK, April 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Euro RSCG Life (ERL) announced today
key appointments to the leadership team at Euro RSCG Life Chelsea, a
healthcare communications agency that combines a commitment to Creative

Industry veteran Bernie Coccia has been appointed President of Euro

"This is an exciting time to be joining Euro RSCG Life Chelsea and the
broader ERL healthcare network," said Bernie Coccia. "I look forward to
doing my part to continue the success this proud agency has achieved over
the years."

Dan Marselle, who has been with ERL since 1999, will be joining Euro
RSCG Life Chelsea as the Chief of Operations, working closely with Bernie
Coccia and the executive team to manage day-to-day activities at the
agency. Marselle's appointment comes as an addition to his current role
leading Euro RSCG Life BlueStar, a successful production company he helped
to build from the ground up.

Ed Stapor, in his expanded role within the network, will take on
additional responsibilities that include Latin America, parts of APAC,
network strategy, promotion and expansion including acquisitions and the
launch of a Euro RSCG Life West Coast agency. Ed will retain current
business unit responsibilities with the management oversight of Chelsea and
