Audrey Benet is Our Redondo Beach Conference Director! After dipping her toe in CHART at the 2012 Chicago conference, Audrey returned in full force in 2022, stating “I learned the value of volunteering at the Las Vegas conference, where I participated in the

community service event and signed up as a volunteer.” After making fast friends and lasting connections, the rest “seems like

history.” She then went on to join the Orlando conference team as the Hospitality Co-director → the Charlotte conference team as Facilities Co-director → the Chicago conference team as Communications Director → which then evolved into the Communications and Project Manager role most recently for the Louisville conference. Phew! Pretty sure Audrey and her conference team will create a splash in Redondo Beach!
