Kristina is originally from California, where she graduated with a BSc in Marketing and International Business from Santa Clara University. She settled in Scotland almost 2 years ago. Kristina's wealth of medical event management experience will be a great asset to the Congrex operational team and very relevant to the scientific client events she will be managing.

Michelle Gallagher is an additional member to the Glasgow sales team. Having gained an HNC in Communication Studies and a BA in Media Studies, Michelle has developed her marketing and sales skills in a variety of roles within meeting and event related sectors, including venue, hotel and the  life sciences industries.
