Start Date: March 2016

Department: Events

Nicole is one of the newest members to join the CTA staff. She works with the Director of Events and assists in the planning and coordinating of CTA’s Annual Membership Conference, 3 safety awards programs, and the California Truck Driving Championships. She communicates with member companies to get them involved and interested in upcoming and future events. She also works with members to secure sponsorships, because without our members’ participation and dedication, CTA wouldn’t be able to organize such successful events.

What three traits define you?  

Hard-working, dependable and motivated.

What is your personal philosophy? 

Make sure you find something positive about each day, even on the most challenging and tough days. Don’t let a day go by without a positive note.  

Tell us two things most people don’t know about you?   

I have spent the last year and a half fixing and updating my 67 year old house, and have watched it go from a dark, gloomy house, to a bright and cheery home. When I’m not working on or planning a new house project, I’m hanging out with my boyfriend, dog and cat.

What aspect of your role do you enjoy the most?   

I really like seeing an event come together! I love the planning process of gathering information and sending it out to our members to get them excited about the events we have and then getting to see the members and drivers at those events. I think being able to see the whole progression from beginning to end has to be the most exciting and rewarding part of this role.
