Message from Our President
  
Dear Chapter Members,

I want to first say thank you and celebrate the Golf Committee for a fantastic event on July 27. I want to thank so many of our members and partners who participated in the day. Whether you played golf, participated in the non-golf activities, or were on the holes making connections with our guests and highlighting your brand, it was truly a memorable day.
MEET OUR VOLUNTEERS: THE DIRECTORS' DEN
  
“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.” - Benjamin Franklin

I am the Convention Sales Manager for Destination DC, Washington D.C.’s Convention and Visitors Bureau, and I help Northeast based meeting planners bring their programs down to the Nation’s Capital.
Similar to most of our industry colleagues, I am really excited about travel. I absolutely love getting to experience a different culture and place around the world.
MEET OUR VOLUNTEERS: MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
  
“Life itself is the proper binge.” — Julia Child.

I have spent the last 15 years of my career in New York City selling New York-based hotels and event venues. The company I currently work for, Makeready, has no hotels in the city. I am now reintroducing myself to the members of MPI as someone who is not necessarily selling New York any longer but is still very passionate about and in love with the city.
