Marlene Bushouse, CTA

Senior Sales Administrator
aka The Woman Behind the Curtain

Marlene describes her job as “assisting the sales team in the obtainment of our yearly room night goal.” What she fails to mention is the endless litany of tasks she undertakes to help make that happen.

She’s a researcher and a proofreader and a scheduler and a designer and a negotiator and a diplomat and a travel agent. (And that’s just before noon on Monday.) If sales is involved, so is Marlene – you just may not know it, because she does it behind the scenes, unobtrusively. Which is why, in a nod to the Wizard of Oz, we’ve dubbed her “the woman behind the curtain.”
