The Chamber of Commerce of West Alabama has announced two changes to its professional staff. Alicia Gregory, who currently serves the Chamber as Executive Assistant and Special Events Coordinator, will move to Director of Membership Engagement, a position previously held by Jill McDonald. McDonald is relocating due to her husband’s professional promotion.

Gregory will be responsible for all membership events, coordinate numerous chamber committees and affiliate groups, and manage leadership development programs.

Tanya Winstead will become the Chamber’s Director of Membership and Resource Development, where she will lead all membership recruitment efforts and resource development campaigns. She currently serves as Community Outreach and Events Officer for Alabama ONE. Winstead, a graduate of Leadership Tuscaloosa, has a long history with the Chamber. She has served as chair of the Ambassador program, and she was a top volunteer producer in the 4th Quarter Drive sponsorship campaign. Winstead succeeds Kimberly Adams, who relocated to Oxford, Alabama, with her husband, Sam, who was recently named Head Football Coach at Oxford High School.

“We are proud to see Alicia step into this new role and are excited to welcome Tanya to the Chamber team,” said Jim Page, President and CEO of the Chamber. “They are both extremely knowledgeable about Chamber operations and programming, so this will be a seamless transition. I have no doubt they will build upon the great work done by Jill and Kimberly in helping take the Chamber to the next level.”
