Welcome to IFEA's U.S. Region 4 - spanning the western half of the U.S. from the northern reaches of Montana's "Big Sky", south to the deserts of New Mexico and all points west to the coasts of California, Washington and Oregon.
It is a pleasure to serve as your Regional Director, to service and support the IFEA members here, as well as help to keep the festivals and events industry in our region strong and thriving. I bring several years of both association and direct event experience to the job and have experienced first-hand what a valuable resource the IFEA can be. I am confident that your organization will benefit from participation in the IFEA as well, and look forward to sharing all that the association has to offer with you.
This is an exciting time to be a part of the IFEA, with new programs, resources, benefits, networking and learning opportunities and much more being created every day for you to take advantage of and to benefit from. The level of benefit is up to you.
Your membership in the IFEA is only as good as what you are willing to put into it. Attend an educational event, read our quarterly "ie" magazine, visit our online bookstore and resource center, call your colleagues listed in the IFEA Directory, save money with one of our many discounted services and programs and please…don't hesitate to call or email me! Writing the dues renewal check is the easy part. Harnessing the power of the premier association of festival and event planners worldwide, lies in your hands.
