SANAZ MARBLEY

This month's #SheIsSEMA Member Spotlight goes out to Sanaz Marbley of JMPR Public Relations, Inc., A Division of IMRE. Check out her Q&A with SEMA and the SBN below:

The best advice I ever received was…

"Don't be afraid to change the plan." As a natural Type-A, I can be rigid at times and when I catch myself, I must think back to this advice.

This keeps me in the industry:

The automotive industry has a sense of community and belonging that is almost familial. It is an industry filled with uniquely talented and passionately creative people, who can't wait to embrace you as one of their own and teach you everything there is to know about being an enthusiast.

On a Saturday, you can find me…

Saturdays are about spending time with my husband and two kids. Whether it's a picnic in the park or a visit to the Petersen Automotive Museum, it's about the time we spend together.

When going into an important meeting I am always…

Prepared and ready to learn.

If I could go to lunch with one industry leader, living or dead, it would be…

George Barris. I had the pleasure of working with him several times throughout my career before he passed. Every time we spoke, he had incredible stories to tell about famous cars and famous people. He was the greatest!
