Testimonials

transformative experience for me!

"Attending the WITH Conference was a transformative experience for me, largely due to Clara Carter's invaluable guidance. Clara's wealth of experience in the events industry and her willingness to forge meaningful connections have been a true gift. She has provided me with the mentorship I needed to navigate this complex field. Clara is a powerful advocate for industry professionals, giving a voice to those who feel unheard. Her support and dedication have significantly impacted my career, and I am incredibly grateful for her mentorship and advocacy. "

an amazing and uplifting day!

“Thank you Clara Carter, CDMP for creating the conference I wish existed 20 years ago when I joined the tourism industry! The Women in Tourism and Hospitality Conference was an amazing and uplifting day learning and sharing with incredible leaders. Grateful to spend the day with some of my Visit Carlsbad team members and our Carlsbad hotel partners Omni La Costa Resort & Spa, Park Hyatt Aviara Resort Golf Club & Spa and the Westin / Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa.”
