Bill Herman
Vice President, Membership & Sales

Bill has spent more than 30 years in the events industry; serving in a range of roles from operations to sales to administration. He has served both enterprise and non-profit show organizers, and started his own events company, which he ran for several years, producing B2C events in several U.S. cities. Much of his career has been focused on international events and he has worked on shows in more than 20 countries, including historic events in Cuba and Libya. His time spent navigating a diverse range of cultures and business models forged an innate interest in people, which serves him well in his role as Sr. Director, Sales & Membership at AMT. Bill lives in suburban Maryland with his wife and son and they travel often to their home in his wife’s home town on the north coast of Ecuador. Although he will tell you that he taught his wife everything she knows about salsa dancing, when pressed, he will admit his main duty in those moments is not to step on her feet.
