STEVENS POINT, Wis.  (February 21, 2024) -- The Stevens Point Area Convention and Visitors Bureau (SPACVB) is pleased to announce recent staff changes, including the addition of Megan Vruwink as Director of Marketing and the promotion of Tessa Nieberle to Content & Visitor Experience Manager.

Vruwink, a native of central Wisconsin and a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, brings a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to her new role as Director of Marketing. Vruwink previously interned with the SPACVB during her college years and is thrilled to return almost a decade later to contribute to the promotion of the Stevens Point Area's diverse tourism assets. In her role, Vruwink will spearhead the strategic implementation of marketing campaigns and public relations efforts, leveraging her expertise to elevate the region's visibility.

Nieberle's journey with the SPACVB began as a marketing intern in 2021, and she has recently transitioned into a full-time role before graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in December 2023. With a background in customer service and a passion for the outdoors, Nieberle brings a unique perspective to her new role as Content & Visitor Experience Manager. In her position, she will oversee the creation of content to support SPACVB's digital media presence and will take the lead in curating the visitor experience at the Visitors Center.

"We’re delighted to welcome Megan back to the organization and to announce Tessa's well-deserved promotion," said Sara Brish, executive director for the Stevens Point Area Convention & Visitors Bureau. "Both Megan and Tessa bring valuable skills, dedication, and an understanding of our region to their respective roles. We look forward to how their contributions will amplify our efforts within our community and throughout the state."

The SPACVB extends its warmest congratulations to Vruwink and Nieberle on their new roles and looks forward to their continued success in driving tourism and economic growth for the Stevens Point Area.
