In addition to hiring Lewis, The Knot Worldwide also promoted two executives internally.
Executive Vice President of Strategy and Finance Andy Ivanovich was promoted to chief financial officer, overseeing a global team of accounting, finance, and corporate strategy professionals.
Ivanovich has been with the company since 2013 and holds a bachelor’s degree in operations research and engineering from Cornell University.
Prior to joining The Knot Worldwide, he worked at Spectrum Equity, Oliver Wyman FS, and Susquehanna Growth Equity.
Deputy General Counsel and Senior Vice President of Legal Felicity Chaban was promoted to general counsel.

She previously served as associate general counsel for Blackboard Inc., an education technology company.
“Both (Ivanovich and Chaban) have a proven track record of success at The Knot Worldwide and have been instrumental in leading several transformative business milestones during their tenure, including the merger of WeddingWire Inc. and XO Group Inc., while also building best-in-class teams,” Chi said.
“As we enter the next phase of profitable growth for The Knot Worldwide, Andy’s and Felicity’s leadership will keep us on the path of strategic expansion and operational excellence.”
