Joining Boxed as corporate general counsel and secretary is Jung Choi, who brings 15 years of legal experience at large public companies and in private practice, most recently as vice president, assistant general counsel and assistant secretary at Stanley Black & Decker. Prior to that, she held roles at Bristol-Myers Squibb and Davis Polk & Wardwell, where she started her legal career. Boxed said Choi will lead all legal and compliance matters and serve as a strategic adviser to management and the board of directors.

Meyer, Vega and Choi come to Boxed just months after the e-tailer made its public market debut and announced plans to license its end-to-end e-commerce platform as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering, joining the company’s retail operation as a business unit.

“We are entering a monumental period of growth at Boxed, and having Anna, Jung and Veracelle join our leadership team with the breadth of knowledge and experience they bring, is critical to our long term goals,” Boxed CEO and co-founder Chieh Huang said in a statement. “Of these key hires, all identify as female and two identify as minorities, illustrating Boxed’s continued commitment to diversity and inclusion.”
