“Just a quick note to say thanks for all your help and sage advice in connection with our member meeting. Quite a few of our members have already told us how much they appreciate our choice of venues and the quality of the food we offered….It’s been a pleasant surprise that so many folks have taken the time to actively compliment us. All the credit goes to you, from finding us great and unusual meeting and dinner spaces to bringing on board really suburb vendors. I can’t thank you enough.”

(Former) Senior Vice President, Membership and Administration; Advanced Energy Economy

“I wanted to thank you so much for all your hard work, patience and thoughtfulness throughout (our) annual conference. I so much appreciated all of the attentiveness and problem solving you did on behalf of the meeting, but even more than that, all of the personal warmth and kindnesses you showed us. I really felt held by each of you throughout the chaos of long, demanding days. Thank you for executing a very successful conference.”

Matthew Whitehead, PsyD

Co-Chair, 2019 Spring Meeting, Division of Psychoanalysis, APA

“Gratitude speaks louder than words…it was one of the things you did for me, among many others, that made it possible for me to be my old self. Without this, my talk would have been just words. I know I thanked you at the event, but now that it is ended, I am still feeling the afterglow in such an amazing way that I want to let you know that you made it unforgettable, and why my doubts that I should be receiving an award were put to rest.”

Phillip M. Bromberg, PhD (1931–2020)

Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychology at Cornell University Medical College

“Thursday night was great. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. It was definitely an experience I’ll never forget. Truly a lesson in how to cope with and feed 100 more people who signed up overnight for the same day event with utter calm. A vision to behold watching you and Tamara in action while the rest of us were having heart attacks! We are getting tons of positive feedback. Another perfect Natalie event!!!”
