We also have fun together – which is nice.”

“Project management is sometimes misunderstood as simply driving timelines and setting up and recapping meetings. But if done right, an important aspect my role is to learn people’s strengths to cultivate their contribution to our work. Taking the time to understand what each team member does will help the project succeed and help the team grow.”

“My advice to people just starting out in the world would be to be open to new opportunities and new people. I started out my career as designing page layouts for Best Buy ad circulars and transitioned into project management over the years as new opportunities opened up and new interests developed.”
