She was a member of the Presidential Protective Division for President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama\, and also protected Presidents George W. Bush\, Bill Clinton\, and George H.W. Bush. Today\, she is a widely recognized multimedia journalist\, host\, and producer who uses her skills in front of the camera and behind it to conduct headline-grabbing interviews and investigate the biggest stories in the media. She appears regularly on “TODAY\,” MSNBC\, and “Good Morning America” to share her sought-after expertise on national security\, law enforcement\, and crime. In addition to her role as NBC’s law enforcement and national security analyst\, she is the host of Bravo TV’s competition series “Spy Games.” Having mastered the arts of communication and psychology in a wide-ranging career that has taken her from the Secret Service to the TV screen and everywhere in between\, Poumpouras offers unconventional strategies for crushing any challenge and living life fearlessly.\n\nPoumpouras has been described as “the epitome of a badass” as she brings a welcome edge to talks focused on looking inward to begin the journey to becoming your best self at work and beyond. Her positivity emanates from the stage and through to the audience as she reveals hard-won lessons on building a more confident and resilient mindset\, communicating for maximum impact\, and unleashing your inner fighter as you push past the obstacles on the path to success. Poumpouras shares thrilling anecdotes from her experiences in the Secret Service\, offering a rare behind-the-curtain look at one of the oldest and elite security forces in the world\, and showing audiences how they can apply Secret Service principles of communication\, leadership\, psychology\, and inclusion in their own pursuits.\n\nIn addition to safeguarding our nation’s heads of state\, during her tenure in the Secret Service\, Poumpouras worked complex criminal investigations\, operated undercover\, and was an interrogator for the agency’s elite polygraph unit specially trained in the art of lie detection\, human behavior\, and cognitive influence. She was among the first responders during the 9/11 terror attacks on the World Trade Center and was honored with United States Secret Service Valor Award in recognition of her heroic efforts. In parallel to her work as a journalist and TV personality\, Poumpouras is an adjunct professor for The City University of New York\, where she teaches criminal justice and criminology.\n\nPoumpouras’ online interviews and her TEDx talk on “Words: Your Most Powerful Weapon” have drawn millions of views\, and she has spoken worldwide in front of many of the world’s top organizations\, including NASDAQ\, McKesson\, United Technologies\, Wells Fargo\, and Corcoran Group. She is also the author of the bestselling book Becoming Bulletproof: Protect Yourself\, Read People\, Influence Situations\, Live Fearlessly\, in which she introduces unique and actionable strategies for influencing any situation and transforming yourself into a stronger\, more confident\, and more powerful person.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHANK YOU SPRING MEETING SPONSORS!\nSunday Welcome Reception: Graham Engineering Company\, LLC\nKeynote: CDF Corporation\nKeycards: Bericap North America\nTuesday Banquet Wine: Hood Container\nTuesday Banquet Reception: Frankston Packaging\nMeeting App: KDV Label\nMonday Happy Hour Reception: Graham Packaging Company\nMonday Continental & Session Breaks: Frankston Packaging\nAttendee Giveaway: Graphics 2 Press/Dieco\, Smurfit Westrock\nOffice M&M’s: Sonoco Products Company\nMonday/Tuesday Cookie Breaks: Hood Container\nTuesday Banquet Dessert: ALPLA\nTEC Breakfast: Plastic Package & Design\nSaturday Reception: MKS Plastics\nBand Sponsorship: Frankston Packaging\, Altium Packaging\nTuesday Session Breaks: Berry Global\nPPC College Lunch: Warren Oil\nMemo Pads: Kem Krest\nLanyards: Inline Filling Systems\nAudio Visual: Frankston Packaging\nOffice Breaks: E-Pak Machinery & R&B Plastics Machinery\nHigh Octane Afternoon Coffee Bars: Smurfit Westrock Bag-in-Box Canada\nPickleball Sets: Hood Container\nGolf Lunch: BG Products\, Inc.\nGolf Prizes: Plastipak Packaging\, Inc.\nPutting Contest: Graham Packaging Company\nCharging Station: Smurfit Westrock\nSession Pens: Mauser Packaging Solutions\nSpouse Event: Hood Container\nSpeaker Gifts: BASCO\, Inc.\nSigns: OEC Graphics\nGolf Balls: Altium Packaging & CCL Label\nGolf Giveaways: Altium Packaging & TriMas URL:https://ppcouncil.org/event/spring-meeting-2025/ LOCATION:San Antonio Marriott Riverwalk\, 889 East Market Street\, San Antonio\, TX\, 78205\, United States CATEGORIES:PPC Meeting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://ppcouncil.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2024-05-29-14_40_35-satdt-exterior-1924-hor-pano.jpg-1920×639.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240818T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240820T170000 DTSTAMP:20260421T020106 CREATED:20240604T165342Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240726T175016Z UID:452-1723968000-1724173200@ppcouncil.org SUMMARY:Fall Meeting 2024 DESCRIPTION:August 18-20\, 2024\nWestin San Diego Gaslamp\nSan Diego\, CA \nRoom Reservations \n Mark Your Calendar!\n \n\nFall Meeting Sponsors\n\n Keynote: CDF Corporation\n Keycards: Bericap North America\n Tuesday Banquet Wine: Smurfit Kappa North America\n Sunday Welcome Reception: Graham Engineering Corporation\n Monday Happy Hour Reception: Graham Packaging Company\n Tuesday Reception: Custom Printed Products\, a Frankston Co.\n Monday Continental & Session Breaks: Custom Printed Products\, a Frankston Co.\n Attendee Giveaway: Graphics 2 Press/Dieco\n Meeting App: KDV Label\n Tuesday Banquet Entertainment: Graham Packaging Company\n Tuesday Banquet Ice Sculpture: E-Pak Machinery\n Office M&M’s: Sonoco Products Company\n Monday/Tuesday Cookie Breaks: Smurfit Westrock\n Saturday Reception: MKS Plastics\n Tuesday Banquet Dessert: ALPLA\n Tuesday Session Breaks: Berry Global\n Memo Pads: Kem Krest\n Padres Baseball Caps: Morrison Container Handling Solutions\n Audio Visual-Monday: Custom Printed Products\, a Frankston Co.\n Lanyards: Inline Filling Systems\n PPC College Lunch: Warren Oil\n Kayaker Gift: ALPLA\n Office Breaks: E-Pak Machinery & R&B Plastics Machinery\n Golf Lunch: BG Products\, Inc.\n Spouse Event: Smurfit Westrock\n Session Pens: Mauser Packaging Solutions\n New Member Gift Bags: CKS Packaging\, Inc.\n Golf Putting Contest: Graham Packaging Company\n Golf Prizes: Plastipak Packaging\, Inc.\n High Octane Afternoon Coffee Bars: Smurfit Westrock Bag-in-Box Canada\n Signs: OEC Graphics\n Golf Balls: Altium Packaging & CCL Label \n Golf Giveaway: TriMas Packaging URL:https://ppcouncil.org/event/fall-meeting-2024/ LOCATION:Westin San Diego Gaslamp\, 910 Broadway Cir\, San Diego\, CA\, 92101\, United States CATEGORIES:PPC Meeting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://ppcouncil.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/The_Westin_San_Diego_Gaslamp_Quarter_9033_328466799.webp END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
