"I have been to four or five Annual YPIowa Conferences and have met a lot of great connections every year.  Being part of the YPIowa events has increased my awareness about what is happening throughout the state of Iowa.  I now have connections in Des Moines, Sioux City, Muscatine, and Marshalltown.  YPIowa is helping to get young professionals outside of our silos… to think beyond our local communities."
