Steering Committee

Hello all!

We, the Steering Committee of the PITAAA community would like to take a moment to introduce ourselves and give you all a quick idea of what we do.

The steering committee is intended to guide the PITAAA community in a more formalized way; this involves brainstorming and proposing new initiatives and helping new initiatives get off the ground increasing engagement and support for PITAAA members and events, helping with ongoing organization efforts, publicization of PITAAA, and sourcing funds for the maintenance of PITAAA.

We all are volunteers on the Steering Committee and we are really excited to work with all of you and help improve the PITAAA community. The roles within the Steering Committee are outlined here.
