Apple has appointed company veteran and long-time spokesperson Kristin Huguet as its vice president of worldwide communications, replacing Stella Low. <\/p>\n

\n

Huguet has been with Apple since 2005 and her tenure has involved some of the company’s biggest public relations endeavors, including its battle<\/a> with the FBI over encryption and a dust-up<\/a> with “Fortnite” developer Epic Games over the App Store<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As Apple’s head of PR, Huguet will report directly to CEO Tim Cook<\/a>. Her new position starts immediately. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“Kristin has played an instrumental role sharing Apple’s story of incredible innovation and strong values for more than 15 years,” Apple said in a statement. “With an extraordinary depth of experience and a long track record of principled leadership, Kristin is uniquely suited for her new role overseeing worldwide communications.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Prior to joining the company, Huguet led international PR for Sun Microsystems. She has also worked at PR and communications firm Burson Marstellar. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Huguet will replace former head of PR Stella Low, who will be leaving the company. Apple did not give a specific reason for Low’s departure, stating only that she is leaving to spend more time with her family. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Low joined Apple<\/a> in May 2021, meaning her tenure at the company lasted less than a year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
