December 2024 Volunteer of the Month

 

Summa McCosker
Senior Manager
APAC Operations

 

My role at PBSA:

APAC Council Chair, former Board of Directors

 

Why I wanted to volunteer with PBSA:

It is the best way to meet amazing colleagues in our industry from all over the world and from an array of companies and cultures. I have formed true lifelong friendships from my PBSA volunteering. By volunteering, you also get to understand what is happening in the industry and it gives you the opportunity to drive change first hand.

 

What I do when not at work:

Besides hanging out with my teenage sons, husband, family and friends, I love gardening, soaking in the spa (hot tub) and drinking wine - preferably all at the same time!

 

What I'm reading:

Today's news headlines, with some good gossip pages to ensure I am balanced!

 

Favorite website, podcast, blogs, etc.:

True crime all the way! Right now I am obsessed with "One Minute Remaining", "Bronwyn", "The Boy in the Water" and "Guilt". "The Teacher's Pet" is brilliant for those interested and haven't listened!

 

On my desk right now (books, personal items, etc.):

A cactus in a bright yellow pot, a pink ceramic roller skate with pens in it, a diary, a few smurfs, a sunflower plant and a mushroom shaped teapot.
