Stephenie Drago serves as the Manager of Member Experience at the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA). She joined TCIA two years ago as a membership coordinator. She is currently developing a brand new Member Experience Department from the ground up. By having a Masters Degree in Public Relations, Stephenie has supported the association to create avenues for the members to not only be heard and served, but to develop strong relationships that drive loyalty and dedication to the Association, increasing retention efforts.
As part of the Emerging Leaders program, Stephenie hopes to further develop her skillset to provide strategic support, and to build relationships that can be leveraged to position TCIA in a stronger place to not only grow the association fiscally but also, to better serve its members.

We've rounded up a few of our favorite recently-trending articles featured in ASAE's Associations Now from the past month!
Put Your "About Us" Page to Work for Members
