Bio
Mike Packard, CMP
Deborah is a very detail oriented person who never misses a deadline. She makes sure all the "i's" are dotted and the "t's" are crossed. Deborah adheres to strict budget limitations when organizing meetings and conferences. Even with limited finances, Deborah can still organize a great meeting that looks as if there where unlimited resources. I would definitely work with Deborah again if I had the opportunity.
