Member Spotlight
  
My name is Karen Miller, and I am the meeting and convention specialist with the City of Fredericton, NB. When I came into this industry in 2018, I joined several associations, trying to learn as much as I could from the experts who knew best. CSAE provided me with many opportunities to meet people and develop relationships, for which I am grateful. CSAE has incredible volunteers, patient and supportive leaders, and an enthusiasm to work with me every step of the way.
