About the author

Amy Fitzgerald, Senior Marketing Manager

 

 

Amy is a Senior Marketing Manager with Trane, focused on the marketing strategy and campaign execution for Consulting Engineers - a key customer segment in the commercial HVAC space. Amy has been with Trane for 5 years and in previous roles managed campaign execution for various vertical markets, as well as supporting the commercial field organization as a Regional Marketing Leader for the Rocky Mountain and Southwest regions. Prior to joining Trane, Amy spent 10 years in marketing for a non-profit manufacturing consulting firm based in Illinois. She holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Marketing from Bradley University and a Master of Science Degree in Industrial Management from Northern Illinois University. Amy currently resides in sunny Phoenix, AZ along with her husband, daughter, and miniature poodle.

 

The ASHRAE® Winter Conference includes a full slate of technical seminars covering a wide range of topics for Engineers, Product Developers, Building Owners, Facility Managers, and so many more professionals in HVAC. These sessions are intended to educate on the latest industry trends, explain results of recently completed industry research, and share best practices from fellow industry professionals. And in many cases, you can earn Professional Development Hours (PDHs) to help meet the continuing education requirements of your professional engineer license or other certification.

This year’s conference is being held in Chicago on January 20-24, 2024 in conjunction with the AHR Expo. But whether you are attending the conference in person or participating virtually online, the following is a list of Trane associates who will be presenting at the upcoming events.
