FROM THE PRESIDENT-ELECT
ATA63: Looking Forward
to Meeting In Person Again
VERONIKA DEMICHELIS

One of the highlights of 2021 for me was ATA's 62nd Annual Conference
in Minneapolis. It was wonderful to see old friends and colleagues
and meet new ones-both in person and virtually. A huge thanks to
ATA President and ATA62 Conference Organizer Madalena Sánchez
Zampaulo, ATA Headquarters staff, and volunteers for pulling off a
very successful conference and dealing with the logistical challenges of
a hybrid event.
I
When past conference
organizers say that
planning for next
year's conference starts
during the current
year's conference,
they aren't joking!
'm very glad that ATA
was able to make the
conference accessible to
virtual attendees, with all
120 sessions being livestreamed
and recorded, and
networking opportunities
available online. Talking to
conference attendees, it was
clear to me that while the
online conference experience
was great, it was not the
same as the in-person
conference-for obvious
reasons. From surprise
encounters with old friends
in the lobby to friendly
chatter during coffee breaks
or meeting new people
over breakfast-there's no
replicating these things that
we all know and love from
past ATA conferences.
It's safe to say that the
Minneapolis conference
was very special to all who
attended. We've all missed
seeing each other in person,
and the conference felt
like a big reunion. It was a
safe, fun, rewarding, and
uplifting experience that
left us all with a muchneeded
feeling of optimism
and excitement to meet
again at the next conference.

It's my pleasure to serve
as the conference organizer
for ATA's 63rd and 64th
Annual Conferences.
When past conference
organizers say that planning
for next year's conference
starts during the current
year's conference, they
aren't joking! Preparations
for ATA63 are in full
swing and I look forward
to seeing everyone in Los
Angeles. We'll be visiting the
conference hotel soon, and
I'll be sharing updates as
they become available.
In the meantime, I
hope you'll consider
submitting a proposal to
