At Carolinas AGC, staff involvement with members is always a top priority and what we do! Therefore, we wanted to keep you aware of some recent changes among the CAGC staff.

Chelsea Andujar
Amber Andrews, CAGC Director of Meetings & Events, has decided to step down from CAGC to stay home with her new baby girl, Harper. We will miss her smiling face and can-do attitude! Chelsea Andujar, who previously served as the CAGC Membership Coordinator, effective Sept. 1st, now is our Director of Meetings & Events and continues to serve the Young Leaders group. Chelsea’s organization skills, creativity and overall CAGC knowledge, coupled with her “get-it-done” attitude, will be a great fit.


Ed Paat
Ed Paat
Ed Paat, CAGC Director of Non-Dues Revenue, will resign from CAGC, effective Sept. 8, to serve as President & CEO of Catherine’s House, a Belmont-based, non-profit organization that provides temporary housing to homeless women and children. Although we’re excited to see Ed’s career prosper, his leadership and positive attitude will be greatly missed.  Meantime, CAGC is actively searching for a qualified candidate to fill this position; in the interim, Allen Gray will assist with sponsorships for such CAGC events as our annual CAGC Clay Shoot and the CAGC Annual Winter Convention.

Carolyn Reynolds

And we’re also excited to report that Carolyn Reynolds has a new title of Meetings & Membership Coordinator/Executive Administrator. Carolyn’s organizational skills and eagerness to assist staff and members makes her a vital team player for multiple departments!

“While we’ll miss Amber Andrews and Ed Paat a lot, we are proud of them and wish them the best as they tackle their next goals in life,” said Dave Simpson, CAGC President & CEO. “With Chelsea Andujar stepping up to the plate for meetings and events development and Carolyn Reynolds taking on new duties, CAGC will continue ratcheting up our value for our CAGC members as we continue providing them with more of what they want – helping solve the workforce shortage with our Build Your Career program, excellent representation in the Statehouses in Columbia and Raleigh, as well as D.C., increased networking with more quarterly events throughout the Carolinas, and new member benefits.”

If you don’t already know your Carolinas AGC staff on a personal basis, we’d love to meet you! Call us anytime, and look for us at CAGC events – after all, we work for You!
