Article by 2010 SMC President Colleen Ellison, CSP, MCSP, CMP of Digital Map Products.
It’s the one time a year we intentionally pause and reflect on the events that have taken place and give “thanks.”
As I approach the end of my SMC presidency I am reflecting on this year and have much to be grateful for and many people to thank. The first person on my list is D’Nita
SALES & MARKETING COUNCIL NEWS
Kuhn, GHBA's special events director. D’Nita is never selfish with her time or talents, always has her door open (literally) and has allowed me the ability to realize the dream of reinventing what SMC means to the members of the GHBA.
I want to also thank the SMC Executive Committee: Ashleigh Genzer, Trish Josephs, Lona Alexander, Amy Haywood-Rino and Terry Dawson for supporting my role but more importantly your friendship throughout the year. Thank you to the SMC committees for trying new things this year and making each event, including Houston’s Best Awards, a success. You each hold a unique talent that made this year’s SMC board of directors one of the greatest.
A HUGE THANKS to all the GHBA members who attended the various SMC events. Thank you also to Brittany Feldmann for allowing those last minute articles, editing each one of them to perfection and making the SMC page the best looking page in the book.
Last by not least I would like to thank my family. Thank you to my husband, Bill Ellison; daughter, Kristen Ellison; son, Ross Ellison; mom, Connie Zachar and dad, Tom Zachar for everything you have given me… life and love.
I hope you all know my gratitude is sincere. I wish you and your families a joyful Thanksgiving.
