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!

My desire to address development challenges and reduce poverty in Liberia drew me to the field of project management.

With a strong leadership ability, I motivate and guide teams to achieve objectives, effectively manage ICT projects, handle aspects such as planning, budgeting, and resource management, and maintain effective communication. I excel in managing changes in ICT infrastructure, minimizing disruptions, and maximizing efficiency.

In addition to my expertise in information technology and telecommunications, I have acquired significant competencies in the field of solar energy. I have led several projects focused on the implementation of solar energy solutions to drive sustainability and reduce carbon footprint. My experience includes designing and deploying solar power systems in various settings, optimizing energy efficiency, and integrating solar technologies into existing infrastructure.

Hello everyone,

My name is Yidi Weng, and I am thrilled to be a new member of the PMI NY Chapter! Joining this group presents a fantastic opportunity for me to connect with like-minded professionals and enhance my project management skills. I am currently pursuing my Master’s in Project Management at NYU, where I am gaining in-depth knowledge of agile methodologies and leading global organizations.

In my previous roles as a Packaging Engineer, I managed numerous projects, honing my project management abilities by coordinating cross-functional teams, analyzing data to inform decisions, and optimizing processes for timely delivery.

I am eager to share my experiences, learn from others, and contribute to the vibrant community here at PMI. Thank you for welcoming me!

Greetings everyone! My name is Jonny and I serve as the IT Operations Supervisor for Sight & Sound - An entertainment company that produces in house theatrical productions and feature films. I have always seen myself as a "planner" and have seen first-hand how ordering my own personal priorities and tasks have made a difference in overcoming seasons where I lacked motivation, confidence, or clarity... both relationally and personally. I have shifted over time from someone who was geared more toward the technical to positions of leadership responsibility and am hoping to utilize PMI to strengthen my confidence and communication with my team, other department leaders, and certainly stakeholders. My hope is that I can make myself more versatile across a variety of industries. I don't have an MBA or any other official credentials in my role as a manager so my hope is that by getting the PMP certification I can validate the many projects I am already managing and perhaps improve my posture with current / future employers.
