This is the seventh installment in a year-long series of department profiles to help readers learn more about the PPAI staff members who serve them.

The Financial Affairs side of the department is charged with recording, classifying and summarizing, in a significant manner, the business transactions of PPAI, the Promotional Products Education Foundation and the Promotional Products Disaster Relief Fund. The department’s Facilities side is responsible for management of the grounds, building and contents of the Association’s headquarters including protection and maintenance of these assets, resulting in a safe, comfortable, clean, pleasant and work-efficient environment for employees and visitors. Both sides are keenly focused on responsible, conservative stewardship of the resources entrusted to PPAI by its members.

AJ Hunter
Director of Finance & Administration
I love spending time on the road on my motorcycle, a BMW R1200 RT sport tourer.

Jan Hogg
Accounts Receivable Coordinator
I love spending time with my seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild. My husband and I also like to take short trips with a camper trailer my husband built. We just took it on a drive to Arizona.

Dennis Cormany Controller
While attending Abilene Christian University, I met six lifelong friends who continue our tradition of a fly-fishing trip to Creede, Colorado, in August. This year, the group celebrated our 40th anniversary trip.

Charles Hooks
Facilities Coordinator
I’m the proud dad of four girls, and I love grilling, playing music and having family time. I have been doing facilities for about eight years now and enjoy every moment.
