Caffeinated Conversations

 Whether you’re a longtime MPIMP member or have just joined, please share with us if the Chapter should bring back Caffeinated Conversations. This early morning event was designed to encourage members to learn more about your MPI membership benefits, meet MPIMP board members, network with other members, and get your burning questions answered! Simply drop in, purchase a coffee or a latte and join us for some Caffeinated Conversations! There is no registration fee for this event. The only cost is your coffee! Share with us here!

Meet, Joy! 

 Most people would be surprised to know…?

I love country music (I love so many genres, but people are generally surprised when I start singing a Trisha or Martina song!).

It's Saturday morning. What is the first thing you do when you wake up?

Wake up my family and get everyone ready for our morning 2-mile walk (unless it’s a Penn State home game, in which case, I get everyone ready to hop in the car and head to Beaver Stadium! WE ARE).
