Tell us about your current role with MTA? What are your primary responsibilities?
I am a global experience specialist (GXS) so I work with the global experience designer (GXD) to help the meetings come to life! I work with the data / administrative side of things to make sure all details are implemented into the system correctly. I also go on-site for meetings to help the global experience team.
What did you do before joining MTA?
Before MTA, I worked in various positions such as event administration, human resources, and recruiting for major companies.
What’s the best part of your job?
The best part is seeing all of the hard work pay off when you actually attend the meetings. The role of GXS is very detail-oriented so to go on site and see our work professionally executed is satisfying. Also being able to connect with the Global Experiences Team while on site is so nice especially since we are a remote company.
What’s been your favorite event destination as an event planning professional?
I was fortunate as I was just in London for two weeks for a very unique meeting! This location with the MTA staff chosen for this meeting was such a memorable experience.
What’s been your most memorable event to date and why?
I have to say the three investigator meetings that were just in London were definitely among the most memorable events I’ve done! The memories that were made there will forever be cherished with the MTA team as well.
What’s the one must-have for every event?
A wireless mouse!! I know it sounds silly, but a wireless mouse is a MUST when traveling to on-site meetings.
What do you do for fun?
I love to travel so any opportunity I have, I take it! I also love to stay active, play sports and spend time with my lovely pup.
You are originally from? You currently reside in? What do you enjoy most about living there? Any favorite spots that you would recommend to tourists?
I am originally from Texas and I now live in Dallas! Dallas has so much to offer with live entertainment, sports, and some really good food! If I have to recommend you do anything in Dallas, it’s get some barbecue!
What makes Miller Tanner Associates stand out as a meeting planning company?
With Miller Tanner Associates being a remote company AND producing meetings all over the world with us only meeting face-to-face once a year, I think this is a huge stand out as we have been able to do it very successfully. A women-owned company definitely caught my eye when looking into Miller Tanner Associates and that is my favorite aspect about MTA!
Why do you think that the MTA Workshops are important? What do you get most from this time together?
Since we are a remote company, I think it’s a great time for us to get together and meet essentially! We use this time to brainstorm ideas and bond with different roles in the company since we usually only speak with our specific teams on a day-to-day basis. This time is essential to our company as we continue to become bigger and better!
