Five people. Five different corners of this company. One shared thread worth celebrating 🎉.
Premium Parking® is proud to share that five members of our team have been named to this year's National Parking Association .
Emily Eaton — Market President, Orlando
Emily was the first-ever graduate of our Development Associate program, a path that's since produced nearly 60 market presidents companywide. She's Premium's first female market president, and this year she signed our first location in downtown Orlando — a foothold in one of the country's most competitive markets.
Diven Pernia — Regional VP, West
Diven built Memphis from a market of one into Premium's second-largest, growing it into roughly 70% of the city's parking landscape and leading companywide growth four of the past five years. Now he's bringing that same standard to our West markets — Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, and beyond.
Eric Rago — Regional VP, Northeast
Eric took on some of our toughest markets and, through hands-on coaching and a technology-first approach, built them into some of our strongest. He's the driving force behind our Integrated Demand Network™, connecting GLIDEPARCS® directly with major booking platforms for a seamless parker experience.
Ida Charles — Product Manager
Ida built FraudGuard™ within GLIDEPARCS® — a first-of-its-kind feature that protects parkers and clients from QR-code fraud in real time. Her attention to detail and steady follow-through have made her someone the whole team relies on.
Emma Clements — Junior Product Manager
Emma helped bring PicPath™, our new wayfinding tool, and the Premium Task App to life — even traveling to Miami to test the parker experience firsthand. She's one of our most active champions for embedding AI directly into the tools our teams use every day.
Insight that sharpens our thinking. Tenacity that gets things done. That's what these five bring to work every day — and it's what got them here.
Congratulations, Emily, Diven, Eric, Ida, and Emma. This one's yours 🎉.
