President's Message

 

Two weeks ago, I landed in West Palm Beach, Florida ready for some sun and fun with friends only to encounter torrential rains and cool breezes. This past weekend, I was at the BOMA International's 2012 Every Building Conference and Expo in Seattle, Washington. The sun is shining and the weather has been perfect. I mention this, because it just goes to show that you can dot your I's, cross your T's, and even check the weather and still not know what's in store for you, so be prepared for whatever comes your way, make the best of it, and enjoy every season.

 

That being said, BOMA Iowa was strongly represented here in Seattle by members interested in furthering the BOMA mission "to represent and promote, in partnership with our vendors and suppliers, the interests of those engaged in the ownership and/or operation of commercial or government properties through effective leadership, advocacy, exchange of information, and professional development and gaining additional industry knowledge." I am very pleased by our turnout and the information and offerings at the show.

 

Lastly, I'm looking forward to this year's BOMA Iowa Golf outing on July 12th and I hope you are too. Whether the weather is like West Palm Beach or Seattle, it's a great opportunity for networking with industry decision makers in a less formal environment.  There is still time to register to play or get a hole sponsorship.

 

Wishing you all the best,

Krista A. Capp

President, BOMA Iowa

New Member Spotlight - Kristen Giudicessi

 

 Kristen Giudicessi

 

I am the new Major Account Manager for Commercial Properties for Waste Management of Iowa, servicing Des Moines & surrounding area, Ames, Iowa City, Cedar Rapids & Omaha.

Her responsibilities include maintaining current customer relationships by being a resource for waste removal and recycling questions and concerns, as well as growing our business by acquiring new customers.    

 

In today's world we can no longer afford to let anything go to waste. As our planet's natural and man-made resources rapidly become scarcer and more valuable, our customers and communities look to us for ways to balance economic growth with the environment.

That's why Waste Management is on a quest for "Environmental Performance". This vision is the foundation for our business and our brand. It sets us apart in the marketplace. It demonstrates our commitment to maximize resource value, while minimizing - and even eliminating - environmental impact, so that both our economy and our environment can thrive.

 

In my free time, I relax by spending quality time with my fiancé, Jon, and my two beautiful children Bella & Sophia.  We are blessed to have great family, friends, & neighbors that keep us very busy!  I have recently become a "fishing" enthusiast, am slowly learning to play golf, and am committed to healthy eating and exercise.    

 

Thank you for welcoming me as a new member, and I look forward to meeting and networking with the great folks at BOMA.
