Laura Mason

Executive Director

Tuscon, AZ

I grew up in Nebraska in a little town of 300 people. I moved to California when I was 13. Married  in 1981, and then headed to Arizona in 1989 after the birth of my son. We bought land and built a home in the foothills of Tucson. I have a son in his second year at the University of Arizona (Go Cats!), and a daughter heading off in the Fall to NAU (Go Lumberjacks!).   

POPA has grown into a great community...full of owners, pilots, partners and operators devoted to the PC-12!

I have worked for POPA since 1990. POPA was small at that time (only 30 aircraft). I worked part-time with POPA and part-time with the founder of POPA , Mr. Cary Marmis as his Executive Assistant. Since then, we have grown to over 275 PC-12s, and have turned into a superb organization with a very active membership. I now enjoy working full-time for POPA as Executive Director, Webmaster, Newsletter Editor/Publisher and Convention Director. So, if you have any concerns, questions or comments on anything in POPA, please feel free to contact me.
