OVG360, a leading full-service venue management, and hospitality company, is growing—and today, it's excited to announce the addition of industry veteran Thuy "Twee" Vuong to its South Florida management team. Joining OVG360 as Assistant General Manager of the Miami Beach Convention Center (MBCC) and its associated campus, Vuong will initially oversee Event & Guest Services, Venue Operations, Sales, Public Safety, and Transportation while being intricately involved in contractor and client relationships coupled with a variety of strategic initiatives.

As Director of Operations for Informa Markets, Vuong managed everything from event logistics and signage to transportation, sustainability, and security for Florida Boat Shows. She spent more than 20 years working for ASM at the Greater Fort Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center, starting as Event Manager and eventually working her way up to Director of Sales, Event Services, and Marketing. Other major Florida venues she has worked at include The Bayfront Center: Times Arena and Mahaffey Theater in St. Petersburg and the Orange County Convention Center and Addition Financial Arena (at the University of Central Florida) in Orlando.

In her new role, Vuong will assist Freddie Peterson, General Manager of MBCC, in managing the day-to-day planning, maintaining, managing and event operations across the entire MBCC Campus—which includes the convention center, Pride Park, Collins Canal Park, and the new Venu and The Rum Room. Outside of her supervisory roles, Vuong will observe MBCC's administrative organization, procedures, policies, and programs, and make recommendations where necessary. Drawing on her decades of expertise, a large part of Vuong's job will be to ensure every event is exceptional to create memorable experiences for all MBCC visitors.

Her success in the industry is credited to her hard work, determination, and attention to detail. Managing many different departments, Vuong takes a team-oriented approach to her work and handles her daily responsibilities with enthusiasm and a calm, friendly demeanor.
