Speaker Spotlight

Amanda Venezia, SNS
Dining Services Director
Londonderry (N.H.) School District

Give us a sneak peek of what you have planned for ANC! Which sessions are you leading during the conference?
Come reconnect with me and some of my favorite school nutrition people during my session, “Lateral Mentoring,” in which we discuss how these professionals have inspired me and helped to reignite my passion for school lunch with their innovations and attitude.

I will also be hosting the session, “#LIVEfrommydesk: LIVE at #ANC19,” on the power of live video and how you can use this tool to gain visibility as a school nutrition leader.

People will be meeting up in St. Louis; whom are you most excited to meet?
As a Task Force member myself, always, NextGen professionals.

But, basically, anyone who shares my passion for feeding hungry kids. There is something to learn from every single attendee, and it is a beautiful thing that we can come together and share that which we do well. We are all stakeholders in each other’s success.

One fun fact most people don’t know about you?
For all that I am incredibly organized at work and can’t leave my desk a mess, my car is always a disaster.

Where can attendees keep up with you and learn more?
