Board of Directors

Our rockstar Board of Directors supports our growth in so many ways – solid governance, strategic guidance, fundraising, advocacy and ambassadorship. 

BOARD MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Laura Sutphen

Golin

Managing Director, Social Impact + Inclusion

TPMS fills an expression gap for Chicago kids. It weds music with confidence and pride and expands the ability of students to think bigger across a variety of subjects. There is also a human-led intimacy that TPMS delivers – you feel like you are a part of something moving, something deeply personal and you feel that energy from every staff member. It’s a catalyst for change with a unique vision, rooted in a unique history, and prepares kids for a rich future.
