Trade Show Executive magazine’s Post

Visit Orlando hired Lisa Messina as its Chief Sales Officer. She will lead numerous departments at the company, including the Meeting & Convention Sales and Experience team, Membership, Supporting Services and Travel Industry Sales. Messina previously worked as Chief Sales Officer at the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority - LVCVA. “What drew me to Orlando is the outstanding leadership at Visit Orlando, the vibrant organizational culture and the incredible product that constantly grows and evolves each year. I look forward to getting to know the team, members and community partners who make this such a remarkable destination, and to reconnecting and serving clients on behalf of this outstanding organization,” Messina said. #tradeshows #industryprofs
