Bio
Heather Brinton Parker, CMP, CAE
I had the great pleasure of working with Jona when she served as a member of CHPA's inaugural Marketing Conference Program Committee. From November 2017 through July 2018, we worked very closely together in launching this new conference. Jona's knowledge, experience and passion for the contributing to the consumer healthcare industry made her an incredibly valuable member of the committee. This was a highly collaborative effort, and she brought great energy, professionalism and leadership to the committee. Her willingness to contribute her time and expertise had a direct impact on the success of the conference, and I would be thrilled to work with Jona again in any capacity!
