Joy Martin
Executive Assistant/Membership Assistant

Joy joined the staff in 2006; she serves as the administrative assistant to the Executive Director and works closely with the AMC and national committees. Joy is the first point of phone contact when people call American Mensa, answering seven phone lines including the toll-free administrative line for AML officers and appointees. She maintains the AMC phone list and other AMC-related information in the membership database, including committees and appointees, via their liaisons. She works with the Secretary to maintain the ASIEs. She coordinates and packs materials sent to events, meetings and workshops. Joy also processes as many as 150 pieces of undeliverable mail each week, checking the database and contacting members for their new information.

Joy works with host groups to coordinate AMC meetings and makes travel arrangements for the AMC and staff members as needed. She works with hotels to facilitate events, overseeing rooms, billing, meals, audiovisual, etc. She offers administrative support to the department directors and assists them with special projects. She fields all email from the office’s general addresses — anywhere from 80 to 200 emails each morning — filters them to the appropriate contacts, and redirects those that don’t automatically filter. She also maintains good working relationships with other national Mensas through her work on behalf of members transferring their memberships and with international members requesting access to the AML Web site. Joy also serves as the office manager, overseeing facilities and supplies and working with all vendors having anything to do with the office building
