We are thrilled to welcome two additions to our accesso Commercial Team: Josh Smith and Mark White. Let’s get to know them a little better!

Late last month, accesso proudly took part in the Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC), the world's largest gathering of women and non-binary technologists. Our company sponsored a select group of women to spend the week connecting with other passionate peers and gain insights from inspiring speakers. The GHC is more than a conference – it's a movement that empowers women in technology – and we were thrilled to support our team members in contributing to this cause.

The people who make up our accesso team are talented professionals who bring unique experiences from all walks of life. In this feature for our “People of accesso” series, we’re proud to introduce our sales director for the Asia Pacific region, Jack Chan

Our “People of accesso” series has allowed us the opportunity to highlight the talented and devoted individuals who make up our incredible team. In this feature, we talked with Kimberly Koester, our Vice President of Project Management & Documentation, about her journey within our organization and her secret to success.

Our ​“Peo­ple of acces­so” series has given us the opportunity to spotlight our diverse team of remarkable individuals. So far, we have looked at the journeys of our Direc­tor of Euro­pean Tick­et­ing Oper­a­tions Robin Good­child, Prod­uct Own­er of Tick­et­ing Research and Devel­op­ment Valerie Wieren­ga, Glob­al Imple­men­ta­tion Direc­tor Jus­tine Dong, our Vice President of Sales Mechele Larmore and, most recently, heard from accesso LoQueue® legend Scott Kelley on the nonstop innovation he’s seen in more than two decades of serving the industry. This month, we sat down with Senior UX Designer, Antoun Aziz to learn about how he’s applied his passion for design to his work here at accesso.

Earlier this month, we introduced you to some of our pawsitively purrfect co-workers in Pets of accesso: Volume 1. Truth be told, we had so many submissions to this series that we needed to split it into two! Fur-tunately, this gave us time to brush up on our pet puns and compile this second post. We hope you enjoy getting to know some more of our beloved pets of accesso.

As the end of 2020 approaches, we thought it would be a great time to celebrate some of our most loyal co-workers, those very special individuals that help us bring our best selves to work every day as we weather working remotely during a pandemic together—our pets!

In this feature, we were thrilled to interview an accesso LoQueue® legend, Scott Kelley. Kelley holds the unique distinction of being the 2nd employee hired in America for our accesso LoQueue team. As a Product Support Manager, he has stepped foot in every park that has implemented our accesso in-park solutions like ticketing and virtual queuing over the last two decades. He and his team visit each park to run cables, set-up the onsite equipment, and troubleshoot concerns once implementation is complete. Kelley has also played an integral role in the innovation and growth of our virtual queuing solutions.

In 2019 we launched our  ​“People of accesso” series to feature some of the extraordinary individuals who are essential to our team. We shined a spotlight on our Director of European Ticketing Operations  Robin Goodchild, Product Owner of Ticketing Research and Development Valerie Wierenga and most recently Global Implementation Director Justine Dong. In this month’s feature, we are excited to introduce you to our Vice President of Sales, Mechele Larmore.

Meet accesso Global Implementation Director Justine Dong, whose passion, professionalism and appetite for adventure have made her an invaluable part of our team. We recently sat down with Justine to learn more about her time in the industry, what changes she’s seen over the years, and the importance of experiencing other cultures.   

In October, we kicked off the “People of accesso” blog series with the goal of highlighting some of the incredible and passionate professionals that make up the accesso team. Beginning with CEO Paul Noland and on to EMEA Director of Ticketing Operations Robin Goodchild, we’ve returned to the states to share some insight from one of the leaders of our office in Lake Mary, Florida – accesso Product Owner of Ticketing Research and Development Valerie Wierenga – to take a closer look at the accesso company culture, the importance of investing in others and what it’s like to be a woman in technology.

At accesso, many of our team members come from backgrounds working within the industries we serve. We pride ourselves on being experienced operators who run a technology company serving the attractions space, versus a technology company that happens to serve the market.

accesso EMEA Director of Ticketing Operations Robin Goodchild is a shining example of this, having spent 16 years in amusement and attractions management before joining the accesso family. His passion for people first attracted him to the industry in 2000 and has served as the driving force of his career ever since. So, we sat down with Robin to learn more about his time in the industry, his change of course to the supplier side and what he sees as the greatest priorities for our European clients.

The world today is more connected than ever, and we realize our business not only impacts our clients and employees but the global community as well. That’s why we provide volunteer time each year for our team members to give back to a charitable organization of their choice.
