WASHINGTON, D.C., Dec. 12, 2018: The International Premium Cigar & Pipe Retailers Association (IPCPR) has announced the hiring of Lisa Cox, CMP as its new Senior Director of Trade Show & Events.

Cox has roots in the Dominican Republic, is fluent in Spanish and earned a master’s degree in Latin American Studies from American University. She also comes from a family and group of friends who enjoy cigars.

“I’m looking forward to meeting IPCPR’s members and exhibitors and using my background to maximize value for our stakeholders,” said Cox.

Ken P.
