What I was like in high school: A nerd involved in everything
One thing I’d change about Virginia: More marketing dollars at the state level to increase and enhance perception among C-suite executives globally. Sadly, our competitors all outspend and out-market us.
Where I see myself 10 years from now: In the same role, crushing the goals of our new strategic plan
My take on remote work: Kids are at home — long live the office!
Most interesting place I’ve visited: Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park in 1983. As soon as we left, Kīlauea began erupting and hasn’t stopped.
Did you know? A graduate of the University of West Florida and the University of Central Florida, Wakefield previously served as a marketing and communications vice president for five years at Florida’s Orlando Economic Development Commission (now the Orlando Economic Partnership).
