Nora founded the non-profit Women in 3D Printing (Wi3DP) in 2014 to promote women leaders in the additive manufacturing industry. After presiding over the organization for 7 years and building a strong foundation and team, Nora is now acting as the Chairwoman of the Board.

In addition to her sales & marketing skills, Nora learned from her various positions and acquired additional skills for web-design, blogging, live and digital event management, community engagement, and has become an established leader in the additive manufacturing industry.
Pursuing her vision for more social inclusion, she joined 3D Africa as Board Advisor and sits at various other Advisory Boards, such as 3DHeals', the Journal of 3D Printing & Additive Manufacturing, TCT Group's, and De Anza's Design and Manufacturing Technologies Department.
