In this new feature, we ask our team members some quick, fun questions to show a little spotlight on the staff that makes IMI great.

Courtney Smith

Account Associate

My favorite aspect of association management is:

I am new to association management, so I feel like every day is new. I love that! I especially love learning about all of the technology associated with this field. I also love tackling challenging projects. It’s like figuring out a puzzle!

On my desk right now:

Lots of pictures, a mug FULL of coffee, and my giant notebook which keeps me sane.

My favorite blogs:

Right now, it’s Socious and HUG Buzz.

My media mix:

I am always listening to NPR and TED Radio Hour podcasts.

What I’m reading:

Eat. Pray. Love.

What I do when not at work:

I love being outside, so anything that allows that! I have two dogs and an amazing five year old daughter, so playtime is SUPER important at my house! We love board games, outdoor adventures, and going to the park.

If I weren’t in association management, I’d:

Probably be in school learning as much as possible about as many things as possible.
