Meet Kate Almanza

As a graduate of the University of Houston, where I earned a BA in Journalism with a minor in Speech Communications, I began my career at USA TODAY, a national multimedia publication. In my final role there as National Education Director, I specialized in selling print and digital news resources.
Most recently, I worked as the Marketing Manager for a small chemical company in Houston, overseeing social media, advertising, the product catalog, the company website, and all trade show planning and logistics.
As a native Houstonian, I’m incredibly proud to represent one of the most diverse and vibrant cities in the country—a place known for its phenomenal culinary scene, world-renowned Texas Medical Center, thriving arts district, and championship‑winning sports teams. I’m here to support visitors in every way possible to ensure their conferences, meetings, and trade shows are a success.
Welcome to Houston—I hope you fall in love with everything this city has to offer.
