Greetings to all,
I am Eng. Mustafa Alfeel and I am pleased to join the PMI community.
Being enrolled to the PMI was one of my best decisions.. especially that I am holding an Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management bachelor, I assure that once I absorbed the knowledge of the PMBOKs, it has really streamlined and shaped my track.
Welcome to the community Mustafa Saving Changes...
Kathryn DautProject Management| IndependentSanta Clarita, CA, United States
Greetings, I am Kathryn. My background is in Audio / Visual Production technical production. I have been working in project management for three years, in the AV design and integration industry. I am currently seeking an Assistant Project Management position.
Growing up I pursued a career in photography. This led me into film and video production. Ultimately, I discovered audio production and that became my main focus.
I pivoted into the education field to accommodate the needs of my growing family. More recently, I have transitioned into the project management field, in the audio visual industry.
Project management is a great fit for my passions and abilities. Working with a team and independently, supporting a project through all of the processes needed to complete it. Bringing value to all of the stakeholders.
Personally, I love to hike, bike, and spend time with my family. I am also involved in several volunteer organizations, to serve and give back to my community.
Thank you for welcoming me into this community. I look forward to learning, supporting, and growing together.

Rebecca ParkerProject Management AnalystGeorgia, United States
Good morning! I’m Rebecca. My official title is Project Management Analyst, but I deal more in operations and billings in an aerospace defense organization. I am also a student at Embry-Riddle working towards a degree in Project Management. I would love to learn all of the ins and outs of Project Management, so please share! As a kid, I wanted to be a veterinarian, but life circumstances set me on a different course.
What brought me the position I’m in now? I kind of just landed here. I started out in aviation defense in the warehouse and have been asked through the years to apply for various positions from supply chain to production coordinator and now here. I am proud to have been a part of all the teams I have worked on. It’s exhilarating to see a team come together and succeed through the many challenges that come with a program.
I look forward to connecting with new people and learning as much as I can!

Mwita ChegereDar Es Salaam, 2, Tanzania, United Republic Of
Hello everyone,
My name is Mwita Chegere, and I am currently a Finance Officer at International Media Support, specializing in financial management and compliance for various projects in Tanzania.
Growing up, I aspired to be an accountant, fascinated by the world of numbers and financial reporting. This early interest laid the foundation for my career in finance and project management.
In terms of project management tools and technologies, I am proficient in Sage Pastel and Microsoft Excel and am eager to learn more about advanced project management software like Microsoft Project and Trello. I believe these tools can further enhance project planning and execution.
I was drawn to the project management industry because of the opportunity it provides to make a tangible difference in communities through effective fund management and program implementation. What has kept me in this field is the dynamic nature of project management—every project presents unique challenges and learning experiences, which I find incredibly fulfilling.
One of my proudest accomplishments has been successfully overseeing financial operations for multiple high-impact projects, where I ensured compliance with donor regulations while building the capacity of local partners. Seeing the positive outcomes in the communities we serve is immensely gratifying.
I look forward to connecting with all of you in this community to share knowledge, experiences, and insights!
