Recipe for Success #1

Join us on Friday, June 26, 2026, at 1 p.m. EDT as we welcome Matt Masterson and Tiana Epps-Johnson for the inaugural episode of Recipes for Success, a new monthly webinar series from The Elections Group.

This series is designed to give the elections community a chance to get to know the people behind the work. Each episode brings two election leaders together for a relaxed conversation about their professional journeys, lessons they've learned, the people who have influenced them and what leadership looks like in our field today.

Matt Masterson is senior director of elections and societal resilience at Microsoft, bringing decades of experience across the Ohio Secretary of State’s office, the U.S. Election Assistance Commission and CISA.

Tiana Epps-Johnson is founder and CEO of the Center for Tech and Civic Life, where she leads a team working to make U.S. elections more professional, inclusive and secure.

In this first episode, Jennifer Morrell will virtually sit down with Matt and Tiana to discuss how they found their way into elections administration, the people and experiences that shaped their careers, and what they’re working on today.

Because food has a unique way of bringing election officials together, each guest will also share a favorite recipe and the story behind it. We'll feature those recipes throughout the year and include them in a community recipe book at the end of the year.

The Elections Group supports election offices with webinars,

training sessions, resources and professional services.
