As we move into 2026, I am honored to serve as President of the MPI Pittsburgh Chapter and excited to build on the strong momentum created by our dedicated leaders, volunteers, and members. The past year reinforced what makes our chapter exceptional: an engaged community, meaningful programming, and a shared commitment to professional growth.
Our membership remains strong and resilient, closing 2025 with approximately 125 members and steady engagement across events and volunteer opportunities. Member satisfaction continues to be a point of pride, holding at 93%, a clear reflection of the value our chapter delivers through education, networking, and connection to MPI’s global community. Retention also remained solid throughout the year, demonstrating the strength of our relationships and the relevance of our offerings.
In 2025, our chapter delivered a full calendar of educational, networking, and accredited events, while maintaining responsible financial stewardship and healthy reserves. From signature educational programs to creative networking experiences, our events were designed to meet members where they are—supporting both personal and professional development at every career stage.
As we look ahead, my focus for 2026 is on deepening engagement, expanding leadership opportunities, and continuing to elevate the member experience. Whether you’re attending your first MPI event, volunteering on a committee, or stepping into a leadership role, your involvement fuels the success of our chapter.
Thank you for being part of this vibrant community. Together, we will continue to strengthen MPI Pittsburgh Chapter and create meaningful opportunities for our members to learn, connect, and thrive.
