Orchestra Nova's Spotlight: Team Member Sam Miller
It was panic time for two of our guests, one of them on oxygen, after a concert at St. Paul's. Almost everyone had left the cathedral as they frantically hunted for their car keys. Long-time Orchestra Nova volunteer usher Sam Miller took charge. She pulled out her phone and dialed AAA, using her membership number. The AAA truck arrived and, after it was discovered that the keys were lying on the seat inside the locked car, retrieved them.
Sam exemplifies the Orchestra Nova team's focus on providing an extraordinary "total experience" from the time guests order a ticket until they leave the concert. Thank you, Sam!
