What inspired you to join the TPMA volunteer team?

I joined TPMA because of its role in building a collaborative product community in Toronto. Having navigated career transitions across geographies and through my MBA, I’ve seen how powerful mentorship and peer learning can be. Volunteering felt like a natural way to give back while continuing to learn alongside other product professionals.

What makes volunteering at TPMA meaningful?

Volunteering isn’t just about organizing events, it’s about creating spaces where people can genuinely connect. I believe strong product thinking sharpens through shared perspectives. Being on the events team has given me a behind-the-scenes look at the intention behind each event, and it’s rewarding to help bring them to life.

What advice would you give to others who might want to volunteer?

Just do it! I considered volunteering for a year before taking the leap, and I’m so glad I did. Everyone at TPMA has been incredibly welcoming. It’s a great way to meet smart people and gain exposure to different perspectives in the product space.
