We're excited to have Kristen join this prestigious group and look forward to the insights that each member of the 2019 class brings."

The ISA Elite program, now in its fifth year, includes three nights' hotel accommodation and free entry to all education sessions at ISA International Sign Expo 2019, the sign, graphics, and visual communications industry's leading event.
