tafLabs 2010 update: another year of “Realizing Awesome”

Written by

As we look forward to another year of TAF, we will also be entering our second year of the tafLabs program, headed up by program directors Jon Lee and Kevin Yau! You may remember last year’s amazing slideshow among other fun projects by the tafLabs team members, and this year we look forward to a growing tafLabs family by introducing a new function and welcoming back a former TAFer — Andrea Hong as our Marketing Director!

You may be asking yourself: “What does this mean for TAF and for me?” For starters, it means that as an organization, TAF is continuing on its way to empowering everyone in our family to help us grow and fulfill our mission and vision through more and more awesome projects. If you would like to be part of action in helping TAF grow — and learning from each other in the process — then tell us what you can see yourself doing to help and/or what projects you hope we can accomplish in the near future!
