What makes you good at what you do?

Worcester Executives Association has been in around for over 60 years and our group meets every week on Mondays to share leads, do referrals and do lots of business between our members. Our members are very good about taking care of each other and we're looking for more businesses that we can work with who feel the same way.

"Why" do you do what you do (what is your "Why")

Helping other businesses to grow and having those businesses work with me the same way is most important to me. I genuinely like the people in our group and enjoy seeing them every week professionally and personally.

 How long have you been a member of your Association?

I have personally been a member for over 6 years and have been the President for almost a year.

What benefits do you receive from being a member of your association? 

I feel as though I am an unpaid employee of the other businesses that are a part of our group so I have a connection that a competitor of mine would not have.

What is the biggest value you receive from being a member of your association?

The networking and referrals

Which IEA association would you like to visit and why?

I would like to go to New York City and see how they run their meetings so I can bring some new energy and ideas back to our group.

Which three words would you use to describe yourself?

Creative, Collaborative, Unselfish

Why are you proud to be a member of your association?

The history of this group is important to me and the members we have and will grow to have that will help my business.

What makes your association unique? For example, what do you tell a prospective member?

Our group has some larger, established businesses that have been a part of this for many years and therefore we have the ability to have a greater impact for our respective members.
