Upon presentation of the award, IAVM Chair, Doug Booher, noted Gregg’s 16-year membership within the association and his six years in leadership positions including serving on the Board of Directors and the Life Safety Council.

After a quick explanation, Gregg readily agreed to assist the association once again, bringing his unique blend of approach and experience to bear to the great benefit of International Association of Venue Managers. Thank you, Gregg for your distinguished service to IAVM.”
