Just call me a PAC-Man

Well folks, sorry about the lack of posts lately, I've just been kept busy between work and stuff with the New England Anime Society. I make the distinction of saying NEAS and not just Anime Boston because recently I was offered, and I accepted the position of Director of Memberships for the Providence Anime Conference. I'm really excited to be a part of this. It's a new angle/concept for anime conventions that differs from what many people have come to expect out of the events. Aiming something for a more mature (and possibly more professional and/or academic as well) will definitely be a bit of a challenge, yet at the same time I think there's enough of a demand in the community that PAC can be successful.
I'll be sure to post more thoughts on things as they develop. I might have been part of the Anime Boston staff since 2004, (and a volunteer in 2003) but this position with PAC is my first executive position with a convention. It's a lot more work, even with PAC's memberships staying at only 2000, but I think I'm up to the challenge, and I'd be lying if I said I'm not enjoying getting to know people in all aspects NEAS better as time goes on.
