After 15 years of design, I moved into an outside sales position at Scripps Newspapers and after two years was promoted to Majors/Nationals Sales Representative. I was able to retire from my job at Scripps and stay home with my young children for 10 years. In April 2020 I took a job a PBS Corp. in their Crednetialing Dept. When business travel opened up, post covid, I was asked if I had interenst in taking over the travel needs for PBS Corp, which I did. This job quicly turned into travel, meetings, and events. My time at PBS Corp. has been an incredible journey and has lead my on a career path that is both challenging and rewarding. I am a single-person department that manages travel, ground logistics, hotel room blocks, pre-site visits, and a wide range of contracts for the following: corporate Annual Summits, 90 regional quarterly meetings and holiday parties, state conferences, department workshops, training, and international stakeholder engagements.
