Birds of a feather.(Whispers)

More familiar faces from Alltel Corp. have found their way to the Circumference Group, formed by Jeff Fox, former chief operations officer at Alltel.

Holly Larkin, who worked as treasurer of Alltel Corp. before the $28.1 billion sale to Verizon Wireless, has joined Circumference. Before she began handling Alltel's green, Larkin worked as senior vice president of corporate governance, where she oversaw business development and contributed to Alltel's consideration and execution of acquisition and divestiture strategies.

Dan Letzler, former vice president of research and analytics at Alltel Wireless, has joined the crew. At Alltel, the graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology provided analytical rationale for key decisions that affected branding, customer experience and investment allocation.

Joy Brown's working relationship with Fox stretches all the way back to his time at Stephens Inc. in 1991. She later moved with him to Alltel. Now she heads up the administrative work for Fox and the rest of the Circumference team.

Ashley Rankin, most recently a sales associate at Acxiom, also has climbed aboard Circumference. However, before her stint at Acxiom, Rankin worked for Alltel subsidiaries Alltel Communications Inc. and Alltel Information Services, now Fidelity National Information Services.

Other non-Alltelers now on the Circumference team include Chris Nilan, formerly of Banc of America Securities, and Clay Parker.
