Cindy Gagle, director of sales & marketing, made the announcement. A highly accomplished sales professional, Hedy M.

"The doctors and specialists were wonderful and my family and I credit them for saving my life," said Ms. Varga. "So bringing health science groups to the new Luskin Conference Center is especially meaningful for me."
