Do you entertain and are you known as a great hostess? If you do, I and AJL need your help and your skills. I am looking for someone to help me communicate with the caterer for our next conference(s) especially the 2016 conference on whose planning we are working very hard. It's a fun and creative project - an important part of a great conference as we all know. Thank you in advance for stepping forward.
