International Market Centers announced two promotions and one new hire to the furniture leasing divisions in Las Vegas and High Point.

Ryan Mahoney and Jared Worrall have been promoted to leasing managers for the permanent home furnishings leasing team in Las Vegas.
 
"Both Jared and Ryan have been very effective ambassadors to the Las Vegas Market, exceeding sales goals and establishing strong relationships with our customers," said Tom Mitchell, president of home furnishings for IMC. "These highly experienced individuals have a keen understanding of our customers' business objectives as well as the value of our marketing platform, and as a result, will excel in these new leasing positions."  
 
Mahoney previously served as the sponsorship manager at World Market Center Las Vegas since May 2009, assisting exhibitors and tenants in executing highly strategic and creative marketing campaigns at the bi-annual Las Vegas Furniture Market. Before that he worked for one year as an account executive for the Gift+Home segment of Las Vegas Market. Previously, he worked as an account executive at a leading Las Vegas tradeshow management company, Convexx, where he served for more than five years.
 
Worrall previously served in sales and business development for the Gift+Home tradeshow segment at World Market Center Las Vegas since July 2010. Before that, he spent three years as a senior account manager within the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. He also has worked for one of the largest specialized staffing firms in the world where he managed new business development within the graphic design and information technology industries.
 
In addition to these promotions in Las Vegas, Angie Nelson has joined the High Point leasing team as a leasing manager.

She most recently served in sales and customer service for Verellen in High Point and before that was a design and sales consultant for Furnitureland South in Jamestown, N.C.
