MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
 


 

The TAPPA Board of Directors would like to recognize and get to know our current members better. The depth of knowledge within this group is something that we should all be proud of. As a board, we feel that we can all learn something from each other, but that this can only be done if we share a little bit about ourselves. In an effort to get to know each other better, we have created the "Member Spotlight" where a TAPPA member will be spotlighted through our monthly TAPPA Newsletter. This is our chance to highlight you and your success to others in this industry. We are proud of our members and would be honored if you would participate.

If you are interested in participating in the TAPPA Member Spotlight or would like to nominate someone, please fill out this interest form. Photo credit: ISTOCK.COM/Vitan
