Board Spotlight

Meet Vice President of Finance – Heather Brown (PRA Chicago)!

1.  How long have you been with MPI-CAC?

I have been a member of MPI-CAC since April of 2013. Seven+ great years!

2.  What committees, if any, were you on before joining the board?

I was a committee member turned co-chair for both the Trivia Night Committee and the Annual Awards and Recognition Committee prior to joining the board. I also worked with the Holiday Party Committee and the Golf Committee during my time as VP of special events on the board.

3.  What is your role on the board?

I am currently the VP of finance on the board.

4.  What is one goal for MPI-CAC you have in your position this year?

My top goal this year is to work with our committees and our Partnership Development Committee to create compelling sponsorship opportunities that resonate during this time of industry crisis. We have heard from our sponsors that they want to keep their names spotlighted through MPI, but how we do that has to change and be reflective of our current climate.

5.  What do you like to do when you’re not working?

I love learning and have been using this time of quarantine to read more books. I’ve taken a writing class and have watched as many educational webinars as possible. More than anything, I enjoy spending time with my nieces and nephews, and I am looking forward to getting back to more of that. My husband and I love to share time working on our house, gardening, cooking and listening to music in our back yard, too.
