The National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) has launched the 30 Under 30 program for 2015, seeking qualified candidates for the upcoming Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS), to be held January 20–22, 2015, in Las Vegas.
The program represents an opportunity for industry professionals to nominate an accomplished young individual who is passionate in his or her profession and forward thinking about the kitchen and bath industry. Additionally, the program also accepts self-nominations.
“As the NKBA’s 30 Under 30 program enters its third consecutive year, we are looking forward to recruiting yet another group of talented young professionals,” said Nancy Barnes, NKBA director of learning. “Previous 30 Under 30 award recipients recognize the program to be a landmark in their careers, and we expect no less for the 2015 group of forward-thinking professionals.”
According to Deena Castello, 2013 award recipient, the months following KBIS were a whirlwind. She returned home more motivated than ever, was welcomed by numerous congratulatory emails and calls from clients and was also featured in local publications.
“The response from seasoned industry professionals has been overwhelmingly supportive and has brought both me and my showrooms to the forefront of the local design community,” she said.
The online nomination form can be found at NKBA.org/30, and all applications are due August 4, 2014.
