Meeting and Event Project Manager, CITGO Petroleum Corporation.

What/who motivated you to become a member of Site?
I was looking for a professional association specifically associated with
incentive events that offered education and professional growth opportunities.
Site is well known and well respected in the industry and I have been very
happy with my membership. I just wish I had more time to get involved with
the organization.

What do you feel are the greatest personal and professional benefits of
being a Site member?
Site gives me the opportunity to network with the best and brightest in the
incentive travel industry. The education events are top-notch and I always
walk away with new ideas, new contacts and a renewed passion for my job
and the industry. I love being able to bounce my questions and concerns off
my peers. There’s an ease, understanding and common ground with fellow
Site members.

What do you think Site could do to demonstrate greater value to current
and prospective Corporate members?
I have always seen the value in my Site membership. I believe Site has the
right education, networking and professional growth opportunities I need to be
successful at my job and to continue to develop professionally. I think as an
organization we could do more to actively recruit and get the word out about
site to Corporate members. Interviews like these are a great start! I would be
happy to talk to any prospective members about the benefits of Site
membership.
