Prior to moving to Syracuse, Knauss spent five years living in Rochester, working in the advertising department at television station 13WHAM.
“Opening an office in Rochester feels a bit like a homecoming,” Knauss notes.
The Digital Hyve currently has 16 full-time employees, with plans to bring on more employees over the next three months.

As of now Knauss and Matt Read, the firm’s COO, are working in the Rochester office, but the company wants to hire two additional full-time employees during the first quarter of 2017, Knauss says.
