Greetings Everyone, being the newest member I am glad to be part of this vibrant PMI community.
I am Neha, having around 7.5 years of IT experience and had worked as a Technical Lead and project coordinator. I took a career break since 2019 due to caregiving and it's been around 5 years now. I am glad that I have decided to resume workforce again and upskill myself.
I am CAPM certified and looking forward to connect with my fellow PM's to gain more from their experiences and expertise.

Proudest accomplishment professionaly was when I managed company wise Web accessibility project and able to gain significant amount of retention and satisfaction rate of customers with disabilities.
Personally, I am proud that I took decision to gave my work a little pause so that I can take care of my child due to covid era at that time.

This has been such a great networking tool not only to make connections and share ideas but also to explore new opportunities.
Thankyou for welcoming me!

Hi everyone!

-Your name and your current role
Kara Austin, Director of the EPMO/Enterprise Program Management Office at PMI

-What did you want to be when you were growing up?
Growing up I always wanted to work with people in Human Resources. I did do this for a year, however ended up working in Marketing Operations, banking and start up companies doing project management.

-What are your favorite project management tools and technologies? Or ones that you’d like to learn more about?
I am obsessed with operational efficiency, so I like anything simple like Trello or even Excel if it’s faster. I am a huge fan of Sembly AI meeting minutes, ChatGPT and the AI functionality in Miro to brainstorm ideas or user stories. I am a huge fan of agile ways of working. I like to choose my own adventure across all the options we have available.

-What drew you to the project management profession? What's kept you in it?
I love organizing complex projects and finding solutions. I also enjoying being a servant leader to share anything I have learned that makes my life easier. I want to help others make it easy too!

-What's your proudest accomplishment (personal or professional)?
I am so proud to be part of the PMOGA Community, which is of course part of the PMI family. I obtained the PMO-CP certification prior to our acquisition and it changed my mindset. The course was a lightbulb moment for how I was running the EPMO and what I could do to improve it. I was thrilled when PMOGA joined us at PMI to expand our reach.

Hi Cristina, thanks so much for sharing with us! It is great to learn more about you and your professional journey.

I would love to hear about the bridges and buildings that inspired you; I certainly experienced a moment of awe at the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
