Carty to Wheelhouse

Brian Carty, former executive vice president and managing director of Hill, Holliday, Connors, Cosmopulos and a principal architect of its recent new-business success, last week joined Wheelhouse Corp., an Internet marketing services firm, as chief executive.
Carty, 50, was tapped for Wheelhouse, Burlington, Mass., by Frank Ingari, the firm’s chairman and a former top marketing executive at Lotus Development Corp., which in the 1990s was one of Hill, Holliday’s key accounts. Carty said that tie played no role in his hiring, and he had not met Ingari prior to his recruitment by Wheelhouse.
