What inspired you to join the TPMA volunteer team?

TPMA volunteers do a fantastic job of building a warm and welcoming community, and it is a community through which I met many great friends and collaborators. Why wouldn't I want to volunteer and pass it forward? :)

What makes volunteering at TPMA meaningful?

The energy and dedication of TPMA's volunteer team is unmatched! Everyone's continuous desire to build a nurturing space for product professionals of all career levels is inspirational and infectious. And when that translates into great programs and events, and you get to hear from people about the value they get from it - well, that makes it worth all the effort!

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

It's rare to find a community that so consistently delivers great experiences for its members. If for nothing else, I would say volunteer to learn what makes a great product like TPMA tick!
