Getting to know PlannerMix.com member Jeremiah Fellows:

Q: Who are you, and what do you do?
A: I am Jeremiah Fellows. I am a technology specialist enabling organizations to maximize productivity through tools that meld with business processes.

Q: How long have you been involved with meetings and events?
A: About five months.

Q: How did you get into the industry?
A: I was introduced to the developers of a great event management tool, eMeetingsOnline.com, and was impressed with the way it manages such incredibly complex tasks, so I came on board.

Q: What is your favorite part about your job?
A: Creating organization out of chaos.

Q: What has been your #1 professional all-star moment?
A: Every time I roll out tools in difficult environments under complex constraints (like international requirements) and see how my efforts create organization, I feel like an all-star.

Q: Describe the best event you ever attended:
A: My local chapter of Brent's Place holds a volleyball tourney each summer. It is an amazingly well-run event with great sponsors and organization, not always easy to do with sporting events.

Q: What professional words of advice have you heard and passed on?
A: Those who say it is impossible to do should not get in the way of those who are doing it.

Q: What is the most unusual item you carry with you on your travels?
A: Rubber tubing, for hotel workouts when the gym is too seedy.

Q: It's 3:00 a.m. and your hotel room phone is ringing. Who is it and what do they want?
A: Chances are it is my friends, wanting to know if I am available to get together. I need to buy them all world time zone clocks for Christmas.
