Meet Austin Plummer, ๐ PMIMSLโs Director of Membership Engagement & Analytics.
Austin became a member in August 2025 after a layoff gave him the space to explore a career path he had been curious about: project management.
Since then, volunteering has helped him meet people across the chapter with different backgrounds and career paths.
In his role, Austin supports member engagement and retention, creates dashboards to help the chapter better understand membership trends, and helps host Pivot Point Collective meetings.
His favorite part of PMIMSL?
๐ โThe people.โ
He says it has been encouraging to hear how others found their way into project management and to see firsthand that PMs come from all kinds of backgrounds.
Dan Jackson, VP of Membership, shared:
โAustin has been a great addition to the chapter. He came in eager to learn, took time to understand what the chapter needed, and then executed. His path is a great example of what volunteering can look like at PMIMSL. He started with a couple of hours a month, found the right role, and grew into a Director position as he became more engaged.โ
Weโre grateful ๐ to have Austin helping guide membership engagement and connection across the chapter.
