Board Spotlight

Want to get to know your board of directors a little better?

Meet Director of Member Engagement – Anna Hess (Summit Chicago)!

1. How long have you been with MPI-CAC?

I have been a part of MPI for three years! I started out my membership with a grant just to test the waters and fell in love with it all!

2. What committees, if any, were you on before joining the board?

I hopped right on to the NEXT Committee after about a month of membership. From there I joined the Membership Care Committee as a co-chair and held that position for two years.

3.  What is your role on the board?

I am now director of membership care! I am really excited about this position because my first year as a co-chair on the membership team, Keri was my director, so it is great to be under her leadership again!

4.  What is one goal for MPI-CAC you have in your position this year?

Our goal is to help find a way to make Zoom meetings more engaging. We want people to have the networking opportunities they would if we weren’t struck with all things "corona." Zooms can be a bit difficult to stay involved in so we are having to think outside the box.

5.  What do you like to do when you’re not working?

I LOVE all things food. I have been doing a little side gig of selling cakes and cupcakes, and I have really rediscovered my love for baking. I also love finding new fun foods to share on my (soft plug) food Instagram: The4tastebuds.
