About Bart Graham, Sr.

I'm Bart, a relationship-driven connector and greeter. I am happy to connect people together for the purposes of networking and have the "knack" of collaborating between associations and departments to promote common causes. And I like to consider myself as the ultimate “right-hand man”. For over 20 years I was involved in large-scale account management for the information technology industry using creative relationship sales and marketing strategies to manage accounts valued at $1-$10M per year.Membership management is my specialty and a passion of mine. For the last 9 years, I have been active in the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA). Currently, I am on the membership committees of PRSA Tampa Bay, the PRSA Independent Practitioners Alliance, and PRSA national, having served as Membership Chairs on all committees in the past. I also served on the board of PRSA Tampa Bay. Auto racing is a lifelong passion of mine. For 20 years I have volunteered as the Media Center Staff Leader at the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg IndyCar race. I support the day-to-day operations and logistics of the media center while overseeing 30 volunteers and maintaining media relations with 170 motorsports media and photographers. I now serve as the Fan Engagement Team Leader.Aviation is in my blood as I am an alumnus of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I give back to my college by leading the 2,600 Tampa Bay area alumni as their Network Leader. I organize aviation-related events for my alumni over the course of the year.And finally, since aviation is my passion, I volunteer with Dream Flights which allows me to have hands-on experience with aircraft. I am an Assistant Crew Chief and media relations assistant with Dream Flights helping to give military veterans free rides in a Boeing Stearman airplane.Since becoming active in Dream Flights, I have taken on Membership Chair duties with Women in Aviation Tampa Bay and Development Officer duties with the Commemorative Air Force Tampa Bay Wing. And, I have volunteered my time to show youth the joys of flying through the Young Eagle's program with my Experimental Aircraft Association chapter.Can I help you take items off your “plate”? Do you need a greeter at your events or somebody to work a trade show booth? Contact me at bart.graham.sr@gmail.com or 727-270-3447 to put me to work for your organization!
