| In this Spotlight story you’ll hear from Beth Amestica, Trade Compliance Analyst with Milwaukee Tool. As a new member, we talked to Beth about why she joined MITA and what she’s already gained from her membership. Read on to hear what she has to say. Why did you decide to join MITA? A friend, who has been a member of MITA, invited me to join a webinar series back in February of 2021. I was so impressed with the quality of the programming: from the moderators, to the seasoned and well-experienced speakers and panelists, to the relevant and impactful content. I made a decision that day that this is something that I can’t afford to miss and that becoming a member will avail me of such great programming and much more. What value has MITA provided to you since you have become a member? Since I’ve been a member, I was able to join MITA’s webinars and hear from top-notch speakers and panelists. I learned from their expertise and experiences in trade compliance, logistics, supply chain, and trade regulations, which I find highly valuable being new to this industry. My network has also grown immensely. I’ve had the opportunity to meet great leaders and key players from the biggest organizations as well as from promising young companies in Wisconsin. What benefits do you find the most valuable? It’s absolutely a true total package! The benefits I am receiving as a member of this prestigious organization is invaluable. How has being part of MITA impacted you personally and professionally? I have only been in the industry for a couple of years and what I have learned from each webinar, from each roundtable discussion, and from each member of this organization has accelerated my growth professionally as I navigate through the world of trade compliance. Being a member has amplified my self-confidence as I surround myself with the sharpest and most knowledgeable people in this industry. |
