With this week’s spotlight of recipients in the IAVM Foundation’s inaugural class of 30|UNDER|30 we ask, “What is your proudest accomplishment?”

bryantbwDanny Bryant
Arena & Pavilion Services Manager
The Classic Center
Athens, Georgia

“My proudest accomplishment actually stems from a failure I had early in my career here at the Classic Center. I was a young event planner who thought I knew everything I was doing. I shortchanged an event—the delivery I gave them, on the product, and what I could give them as a planner. What I’m really proud of is the way I recovered. I had the opportunity the following year to take that event or not have it again, and I really wanted the opportunity to step back up to the plate. I did, and to this day me and that client are now great friends and have a great working relationship, and I know he truly knows how much I care about his event. It really made me step forward in my career and made me refocus and think if I’m going to do this right how am I going to do it?”

Sales Manager
Cox Business Center
Tulsa, Oklahoma

“I’ve had a few proud moments here at the Cox Business Center, and one stands out above the rest. I’d been working with a Fortune 500 company to host their event, and through relationship building I’ve been able to secure their business. Their event will be held in the fall of this year. I look forward to working with this organization and growing their business here at the center.”

Market Research Analyst
Massachusetts Convention Center Authority
Boston, Massachusetts

“My proudest accomplishment to this day is having the confidence of IAVM staff and the member volunteers to chair the Research Committee for the 2015-2016 membership year as one of the youngest members ever to chair one of the IAVM committees.”

AnnieAnnie Salamunovich
Assistant Production Supervisor
Portland’5 Centers for the Arts
Portland, Oregon

“My proudest accomplishment in the venue management world has been completing my operational expense analysis for the Portland’5 Centers for the Arts. I did a deep dive using my CPA skills and hashed out a per-use-rate for each of our theaters. From there, I took it one step further and allocated all of our operating expenses to each of our user groups and contrasted that with the revenues we were bringing in so that we could compare and contrast. That was a huge highlight of how much we subsidize our resident companies and our non-profit groups and how much we support their missions and it helps with budge decisions.”
