Membership Spotlight
  
I am the manager of member services for Association and Events Management International, an AMC based out of Toronto. I joined the CSAE to gain more knowledge of the association community. Within my first year with CSAE, I was nominated for the Trillium Emerging Talent Award and later joined CSAE’s Trillium network council. As I enter my second year on the council, I truly understand and appreciate all the hard work that volunteers in all associations put into making it successful. I look forward to meeting other CSAE members at upcoming events!
