Interview in SNAP magazine on page 55 →
I am excited about this interview because it features Andrew & I. I also love it because we were both very honest. Since we both became entrepreneurs, it’s been a wild ride. I love TUM but it has come with lots of sacrifice & challenge. We both feel there are not enough hours in the day & we miss our kids! Having said that, we wouldn’t have life any other way.
Tickets are on sale today
The website will be updated with a ticket link by noon. We apologize for all of the confusion.
Also, this month we are changing the ticket format & introducing scanners. This means all guests must bring a print copy of their ticket. We hope that this speeds up the process & makes TUM more enjoyable.
Thank you & hope to see you all in April!
