Position: Exhibition Manager

How long have you been with IAAM? It will be nine years on December 1st.

What is your favorite part of IAAM? My greatest pleasure is meeting and working with the many exhibitors over the years. They are the foundation of why I love my job!

What are some exciting things coming up in your area that you would like our members to know about? We are currently 86% reserved for the annual Trade Show working towards another sold out show! In addition, since “Going Green” is such a hot topic, we’re hoping to create a sustainability area on the exhibit floor in Boston in 2009. This year will be the kick-off year for creating awareness as well as to encourage exhibitors to participate in the green movement.

How do you hope to add value to the IAAM Members? By providing quality trade shows so exhibitors achieve their goals, as well as presenting the latest products and services for our active members.

Who/What inspires you? My Dad. For the longest time he kept asking me, “What are you going to do when you grow up?” I must have found my niche.....he is my biggest supporter.

What is something that the members don’t know about you? I’m the Refrigerator S.W.A.T. Team, i.e., I clean out the refrigerator in the IAAM break-room. Ha! Leftovers don’t have a chance with me around!

Hobbies: Spending time with family and friends, reading, being creative with flowers and plants in the yard.
