a lull in travels.

I wish I kept better record of all of the places I have traveled since I started with Aggreko.
But what I HAVE kept a good record of are my role changes...
They go something like this: Intern. Internal Communications Specialist. Direct Marketing Specialist... and wait for it... I am now the brand new
Events & Communication Specialist!!!
yes, yes, yes!

What does this mean for me?
Well, it means my little lull in traveling is about to come to an end.
It's been a slow year of travels - I've only made 3 trips to Cali, a handful of trips to Houston, and a trip to Costa Rica.
But this girl has big plans on the horizon.

I will be representing North America at OTC. Holy cow. That's big. Then, I will be representing Aggreko at DUG. And THEN, the coolest of all, I am coordinating SportAccord in Quebec City in just a short month. Super excited and a tad stressed out about this thing called SportAccord. Why? Because its crazy. SportAccord is where countries and Sporting Associations get together every other year to decide who will hold the biggest Sporting Events in the world. Like... The Olympics! And the World Cup! And the World Equestrian Games. (All of which Aggreko is proud to sponsor). So not only will I be coordinating logistics for the Media Suite and sponsorship, but I will also be spending a week coordinating events for the top Aggreko folks in the business. (I am lucky to call many of these people my buds, but it still adds an extra element of oomph to the planning!)

Anywho, to put it bluntly, I am so stoked about my new role with Aggreko and even more excited to add Quebec to my list of upcoming destinations. Gotta love those Canadians, eh?

Would it be OK to admit my underlying scheme of scoring an invitation to the London Olympic Games? I represented Vancouver well :)
